" I Will Not Be Defeated"


I will not be defeated,
And this is the reason why.

I serve a God who is all powerful,
And He is always standing by.

He knows all about me,
Jesus is is name.

And even though I sometimes fail Him,
His mercy remains the same.

He knows all about my life,
From beginning to the end.

Yet He forgives me daily,
proving His love over and over again.

The devil is always trying to harm me,
Sometimes causing me to fall down.

But my Jesus is always there,
picking me up off of the ground.

And when the devil trys to harm me,
of the peace that my God has given me.

I find myself calling on The sweet Holy Spirit,
For He always hears my plea.

And when my heart is aching,
and the tears began to flow...

I call upon my Jesus,
For He comforts me you know.

I will not be defeated,
For I will keep my eyes upon His face.

And just as a mirror reflects an image,
The image that I see looking back at me is His grace.

And when my way seems dreary,
And the way I just cannot see.

I call upon my sweet Jesus,
For He is the God that strengthens me!
