Though at times life may knock me down to the ground br Life isn’t nearly as difficult as Satan would have me to believe… br br Things are difficult because sometimes I get tired of getting br Up again and making the same mistakes repeatedly… br br God lifts me up when I am down br He dusts’ me off and gives me a new hope… br br Pure and clean I stand before our Lord br All washed white as snow once more br br He gives me strength to press onward br So I speak softly in my mind br I tell myself: “he is with you” br Even when you cannot press on alone br br His strength is my strength br His hope is my hope br In him I shall breathe br And be freed from a world br Of doubts and fears br In him I shall again stand firmly br br He lifts me up when life lets me down br He sends more love than my heart can hold br He holds my hand when I am afraid of what br Is just up ahead br Becky Laprarie © Copyright 51608br br Becky LaPrariebr br
