Shirley Caesar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ev'ry minute, ev'ry hour I believe.
I believe in myself 'cause I know
I get my help from the power in the sky,
I believe.
No need askin' where I've been just ask me where I'm goin'
I won't be ashamed to tell ya, I live my life knowin'
Ev'ry step so heavenly ya fall and bounce right up
All miracles and dreams realize for me through faith
Nothing seems impossible now if you believe.
I believe in the power and I never, ever doubt.
Ev'ry minute, ev'ry hour I believe.
I believe in myself 'cause I know
I get my help from the power in the sky,
I believe.
Lookin' in the mirror, I can see my eyes are glowin'
Living testimony that the spirit's in me flowin'.
Oh, I'm feelin' so good, got to raise my hands and rejoice
Say a few words to praise him ev'rytime I lift my voice.
All miracles and dreams realize for me through faith
Nothing seems impossible now if you believe.
I believe in the power and I never, ever doubt.
Ev'ry minute, ev'ry hour I believe.
I believe in myself 'cause I know
I get my help from the power in the sky,
