1 ~ I know my Lord is there for me; to Him I must reach out

He gives me strength and knows what all my weakness is about


2 ~ When I am down and feel I need help for my aching soul

This verse helps me feel rested; once again I will feel whole


3 ~ Encourage one another and then build each other up

When you give freely of yourself you help to fill their cup


4 ~ Don't worry 'bout tomorrow as that is another day

Just think about today and to God give your cares away


5 ~ Whatever makes you anxious, take it to the Lord in prayer

And possibly you'll find out it is no longer a care


6 ~ Since I was just a little girl, my mom said to believe

That what I asked for in God's name, expect that I'll receive 


7 ~ He's with me everywhere, I will be brave and never fear

I must not be dismayed, I know my Lord is always here


8 ~ He made me special from the moment I was in the womb

When I was born, He brought me out, on this earth I'd resume


9 ~ This season's about Jesus and His love means joy and hope

The Holy Spirit gives us peace, and helps us all to cope


10 ~ Our God loved us so much, He gave his one and only son

If we believe, we'll be with Him when our time here is done
