I SHALL PREVAIL

[MIRIAM JACOB]

I SHALL PREVAIL

Even though I struggle and have had enough setbacks
to cause me to shed a tear;
And even though I face challenges so great, that they
cause me to tremble with fear.
At times, I lose faith, and struggle with doubts that
cause me to believe that I'll fail;
God reminds me of His love; In Him, I shall prevail.


I sometimes make poor choices, and do things that
cause me to wander and lose my way;
I don't always listen to good advice and when I'm
stubborn, I begin to stray.
I might easily throw up my hands in frustration,
because I think that I will fail;
But God is faithful; In Him, I shall prevail.


I will still believe, even though I have struggles
that at times seem too great to bear;
I will bow down and cast upon God my every care.
I have a God, who will strengthen and renew me,
even when I feel that I might fail;
I will have faith. I will not give up.
For with God's help, I shall prevail.
