Relient K Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Am I at the point
of no improvement
What of the death
I still dwell in
I try to excel
But I feel no movement
Can I be free of this unreleasable sin
Chorus
Never underestimate my Jesus
Your telling me that there's no hope
I'm telling you your wrong
Never under estimate my Jesus
Cause when the world around you crumbles
He will be strong
He will be strong

I throw up my hands
Oh the impossibilities
frustrated and tired
where do I gi from here
Now I'm searching for the confidence
I've lost so willingly
Overcoming these obsticles
Is overcoming my fears Ohh

chorus

I think I can't
I think I can't
But I think You can
I think You can
I think I can't
I think I can't
But I think You can
I think You can
Gather my insufficienies and
place them in your hands
place them in your hands
place them in your hands

chorus





HE will be strong x3
