It's My Life
The Bridgettes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And wish for ten more minutes left to sleep
And as I get into the shower the thoughts of facing one more day
Overwhelm me and I begin to weep
And I've never felt like I've needed Your help so bad
Well, my tears are pushed away now for the sake of morning rush
'Til the Bible on the table catches my eye
And I realize that I don't have to try
To live life myself because You're ready to help me live
And everyday I look to you
To be the strength of my life
You're the hope I hold onto
Be the strength of my life
Be the strength of my life
Strength of my life
Be the strength of my life today
Be the strength of my life
Strength of my life
Be the strength of my life today
Each day has its problems, it troubles and its tears
And it seems I'm always anything but strong
When I learn to know my weakness
I understand your strength
And even when the hard times last so long
I won't try by myself, I'll just ask for Your help
Each day
And everyday I look to you
To be the strength of my life
Breathe on me and make me new
Be the strength of my life
Be the strength of my life
Strength of my life
Be the strength of my life today
Be the strength of my life
Strength of my life
Be the strength of my life today
Be the strength of my life
Strength of my life
Be the strength of my life today
Be the strength of my life
Strength of my life
Be the strength of my life today

Open my eyes to the sound of morning news
I wake up to the sound of the news and start my day
And wish for ten more minutes left to sleep
I want just a little more sleep before facing the day
And as I get into the shower the thoughts of facing one more day
As I get ready, I start to dread the day ahead
Overwhelm me and I begin to weep
It all becomes too much and I start to cry
And I've never felt like I've needed Your help so bad
I feel like I am in desperate need of divine help
Well, my tears are pushed away now for the sake of morning rush
I put my tears aside to hurry up for the day
'Til the Bible on the table catches my eye
I see the Bible on the table and take notice
And I read that you are near to the hearts that break with grief
I find comfort in reading that God is close to those who are suffering
And I realize that I don't have to try
I understand that I don't have to handle things on my own
To live life myself because You're ready to help me live
Because God is there to help me live
Each day has its problems, it troubles and its tears
Every day has its challenges and difficulties
And it seems I'm always anything but strong
I often feel weak and incapable
When I learn to know my weakness
When I acknowledge my own weakness
I understand your strength
I understand that God's strength can help me
And even when the hard times last so long
Even when the struggles seem never-ending
I won't try by myself, I'll just ask for Your help
I won't try to handle it alone, I'll ask God for help
And everyday I look to you
I rely on God every day
To be the strength of my life
To be the source of my strength
You're the hope I hold onto
God gives me hope
Breathe on me and make me new
I ask God to renew me
Be the strength of my life
God, be my strength today
