Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The race is not given
(To the swift) to the swift, (or the strong) or the strong
But to the one that endureth till the end x2

(Chrous)
I know that I can, Make it
I′m gonna keep on running
X4

(Verse 2)
I know that I can make it
With Jesus on my side I can
X2

I know that I can! x6




I know that I can make it
I know that I can
