I Almost Gave Up

I almost gave up, it's true my hope, my strength, all nearly through life became too hard, too rough I felt like I had enough. 

The end of the rope, that's where I stood I didn't think I could make it, I really should
I was drowning in the waves of life and struggling to keep strife. 

But then, something miraculous occurred
God Yahweh held me, and my spirit stirred. He wouldn't let go, no matter how hard I tried. He gave me the strength I needed to survive. 

The voices in my head whispered doubt but God's voice silenced them, no longer about He reminded me that I was never alone
And that with Him, I could make it known

So now I'm holding on, tight and strong with God's grace, I'll carry on. I won't let life beat me down because with God, victory can be found.
