Afolake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blessed are those who put trust in You
For they will never be put to shame
I put my hope and confidence in You
Won't have any other way
When everything in life is going wrong
Come what may
I know that life and deaths on the tip of my tongue
So I'll watch what I say
Oo let the weak say I am strong
Let the poor say I am rich
When there nothing going right
I'll declare it
As if it is
Let the weak say I am strong
Let the poor say I am rich
Remember what the Lord has done
And testify of it
I am blessed
I declare I'm blessed
I am blessed oh I'm blessed
I declare I'm blessed
No one said this life be easy
Never said it would go my way
So when I am feeling weary
Weary
It's His joy that is my strength
I know I can complain a lot
But I'll let your words rearrange my thoughts
So when I let go
I'll let you be God yea
I'm gonna live in gratitude
Giving honor and praise to you
No matter what I'm going through
I will say
I am blessed
I declare I'm blessed
I am blessed oh I'm blessed
I declare I'm blessed
Oo let the weak say I am strong
Let the poor say I am rich
When there Nothings going right
I'll declare it
As if it is
Let the weak say I am strong
Let the poor say I am rich
Remember what the Lord has done
And testify of it
I am blessed
I declare I'm blessed




I am blessed oh I'm blessed
I declare I'm blessed
