Heartaches and strife tried to ruin your life
But you came and called upon the Lord
With your head lifted high and your voice rang to the sky
You said, "I'll be defeated no more"

CHORUS
Troubles surrounded me Sorrows encompassed me
But I found joy in my soul
For my foes are defeated, in the Heavenlies I'm seated
For my God is in control

He'll help me walk the way as I'm on my knees to pray
Bringing Him my every care
With your hand in mine I will help you walk the line..
And You know I'll always be there.

CHORUS

I will praise His holy name, my God forever reigns
I am blessed to be His own
Though the earth will pass away but His love will always stay
Blessed is the One upon the Throne.

CHORUS
