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
It's 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
It's through the fire
my weakness is made strong
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 fightin'
But he said
help would always
come in time
Just remember
when you're standin'
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
I know within myself
that I would surely perish
but if I trust the hand of God
he'll shield the flames again
Again
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 fightin'
But he said
help would always
come in time
Just remember
when you're standin'
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
So just hold on
Our Lord will show up
and he will take you
through the fire again
