I Can Do All Things
When life's treacherous trek becomes more than I can bear,
And it seems there is no deliverance from my deep despair,
I repeat these words of reassurance that will soothe my woe:
"I can do all things through Him who gives me strength!", I know!
When I am faced with seemingly insurmountable goals,
And my dreams and aspirations are dashed on desolate shoals,
With these encouraging words I can conquer any foe:
"I can do all things through Him who gives me strength!", I know!
(Philippians 4:13)
