So many times i've questioned certain circumstances

Or things I could not understand

Many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision

And my frustration gets so out of hand

Its then I am reminded I've never been forsaken

I've never had to stand the test alone

As I look at all the victories

The spirit rises up in me

And its through the fire my weakness is made strong



Chorus:

He never promised that the cross would not get heavy

And the hill would not be hard to climb

He never offered our victories without fighting

But He said help would always come in time

Just remember when your standing in the valley of decision

And the adversary says give in

Just hold on, our Lord will show up

And He will take you through the fire again



Bridge:

I know within myself that I would surely perish 

But if I trust the  hand of God, He'll shield the flames again, again



Repeat Chorus
