Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And it makes us worry
But today I want to remind you
Of the one that you do have
And let you know
That He's still able
I've been hurt and abused
I've had some nights I cried more than I prayed
That's when God said to me
I am still in control
It changed my prospective, and so
Now the worry is over (yes)
And the doubt is gone away
God reminded me (He reminded me)
That he's still able
God reminded me (that in spite of it all)
That he's still able
Thank you Lord
There are some days
I feel like giving up, and I wonder
How could God love me and let me go through so much?
Anyone would asked that question
I'm afraid to carry this hurt all alone
Today more than ever
I need your help Lord
With you I can move on (move on)
Now the worry is over
And the doubt is gone away (you're not alone)
Now the worry is over
And the doubt is gone away
Lift your hands and say
Now the worry is over
Thank you Jesus
And the doubt is gone
God reminded me, you can't forget
That He's still able
I was about to give up
God reminded me, he reminded me
That He's still able
But it's not easy because
Sometimes it's seems (oh God)
There's no way out
You're surrounded by problems
So many problems weigh, they weigh you down
You down, (but He cares for you)
You've got to know (my sister) He cares (my brother)
And he wouldn't, leave you there (not for long)
For long
So right now I just need you to
Be strong
And remember that
God is able
He's able
Able
He hasn't changed
He's still able, able
Seems like problems waiting in line just for you
God is able, (He's able) able
You say I've never faced anything like this before
He still able, able
The odds are still in your favor because
God is able (when you planned it your way) able
And it hasn't gotten better (able)
Remember god is still
He's still able
In the midst of your storm (able)
In the midst of your struggle (able)
It's good to know that
God is able
In the hospital (able) in the court house (able)
Even in your house, believe
He's still able
You can't give up (able)
The story is not over (able)
God will provide (God is)
What ever you need (everything)
If they walk out on you (that you need)
If they never come back (everything)
If they don't support you (that you need)
He sees your tears (everything)
God knows your pains (that you need)
If you are sick in your body (everything)
He's the God that heals (that you need)
If you lose your job (everything)
And you can't pay your bills (that you need)
No food on the table (everything)
I know he's able (that you need)
You can wipe your tears (everything)
'Cause he's everything (that you need)
That you need
(And so now, the worry) that the worry is over
I can weigh the doubt away (I was at my lowest point when God)
God reminded me, that he is still able
I know I can make it because
God reminded me
That he is still able
That he is still able

Many times in life we focus on all we don't have
Often we concentrate on what we lack in life
And it makes us worry
And this leads to anxiety
But today I want to remind you
However, today I desire to bring to your attention
Of the one that you do have
Of the one thing that you possess
And let you know
And inform you
That He's still able
That God is still capable
I've been hurt and abused
I have experienced pain and trauma
Even lied to by the ones I trusted most
And been deceived by those I relied on the most
I've had some nights I cried more than I prayed
I have had several nights where I shed more tears than I said my prayers
That's when God said to me
It was then that God spoke to me
I am still in control
Assuring me that He is still sovereign
It changed my prospective, and so
This shifted my perspective, accordingly
Now the worry is over (yes)
Now my distress is gone (yes)
And the doubt is gone away
And my distrust has been dispelled
God reminded me (He reminded me)
God reminded me (He reminded me)
That he's still able
That He is still capable
God reminded me (that in spite of it all)
God reminded me (that despite everything)
That he's still able
That He is still capable
Thank you Lord
Grateful to God
There are some days
There are times
I feel like giving up, and I wonder
I feel like throwing in the towel and ask myself
How could God love me and let me go through so much?
Why God, Who loves me, allow me to go through immense trials?
Anyone would asked that question
This question would cross anyone's mind
I'm afraid to carry this hurt all alone
I fear to bear this pain alone
Today more than ever
Especially today
I need your help Lord
I require Your assistance, Lord
With you I can move on (move on)
With You, I can move forward
Lift your hands and say
Raise your hands and proclaim
Thank you Jesus
Thank You, Jesus
God reminded me, you can't forget
God reminded me, don't forget
That He's still able
That He is still capable
I was about to give up
I was on the brink of quitting
God reminded me, he reminded me
God reminded me, He reminded me
That He's still able
That He is still capable
But it's not easy because
But it's not a simple task because
Sometimes it's seems (oh God)
Sometimes, it appears (oh God)
There's no way out
There's no escape
You're surrounded by problems
You're beset with difficulties
So many problems weigh, they weigh you down
Numerous challenges burden you, it weighs you down
You down, (but He cares for you)
It weighs you down, but He cares for you
You've got to know (my sister) He cares (my brother)
You must be aware (my sister), He cares (my brother)

For an extended duration
