That's God Within Me

Cody Sims 2001 (WI)



Waking up breathing the air
Letting the pick stroke through my hair
Telling myself I shall move on
Forever I am standing strong
He's the only one I see

That's the God Within Me

My only friend when times get rough
A secret holder I know I trust
My prayers are always heard
His blessing lift me like a bird
Embracing my heart with his keep

That's the God Within Me
