Fr Rob Galea Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Trouble on every side but not distressed
Perplexed but I'm never in despair
Persecuted but I won't be forsaken
Pressed down but I'll never be destroyed
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive
I will stand, stand, stand on the rock
I will never be moved
And I will fight, fight, fight in this life
Until the victory is proved
Though the rains come down and the rivers may rise
I will lift my voice, I will raise my eyes
I will dance, dance, dance to a beat that never dies
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive
Trouble on every side but not distressed
Perplexed but I'm never in despair
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive, I'm alive in Him




I'm alive, I'm alive in Him
I'm alive

This was my prayer this past Friday morning, 5-3-2019, before going to work. Literally a few hours later the building I was in was destroyed by a tornado. Prayer is powerful never forget to pray especially in the peacefulness of the morning. The Gospel Alleluia is a powerful prayer that is still unfolding in my life.

β€œDo you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own. The Father who dwells in me is doing his works.” John‬ ‭14:10‬

Are you living the Gospel, the Living Word of God? We can study scripture and still not know God. God will knock and then we get to choose, answer or do nothing. Holy moments await in our lives when we answer. Our answer allows God to go into action otherwise we keep Him inside. β€œDo not fear, for I am with you; Do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, Surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’” ‭‭ISAIAH‬ ‭41:10‬. Living the Gospel can be scary but it isn’t us but God working through us. Stop denying God and give Him breath in your life. Somebody else can not do it for you, you must step out of the boat and walk on the water. God will be there to hold you up. God knocks, will YOU answer.

Dear Lord, I am thankful for all those stepping out in faith and taking risks. They are walking on water and living Your word. Thank You for allowing me to witness it happening and being able to experience Holy moments. Prayers for a group of men on retreat experiencing the power of God, strengthen them for their discipleship. Prayers for a special intention may they be filled with joy and peace as they walk with you. Bless this day Father, overcome our doubts and teach us Your wisdom in action. Amen.

Mary, Our Lady of Victory, pray for us.
