It is funny because one of my church members requested that I sing this song in church and at the time, it didn't have much meaning to me. The song wasn't easy to learn so I put off learning it for a long time but I eventually sang it. I can't believe this same song is ministering to me and sort of tells my story. The lyrics are below...<br /><br /><div align="center">Yet Still I Rise Lyrics<br />Lyric of Yolanda Adams<br /><br />Verse 1:Shattered, but I'm not broken</div><div align="center">Wounded, with time will heal</div><div align="center">Heavy the load, the cross I bear</div><div align="center">Lonely the road I trod, I dare</div><div align="center">Shaken, but here I stand</div><div align="center">Weary, Still I press on</div><div align="center">Long are the nights, the tears I cry</div><div align="center">Dark are the days, no sun in the sky, yes</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">Chorus:</div><div align="center">Yet still I rise</div><div align="center">Never to give up</div><div align="center">Never to give in against all odds</div><div align="center">Yet still I rise</div><div align="center">High above the clouds</div><div align="center">At times I feel low</div><div align="center">Yet still I rise</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">Sometimes I'm troubled, but not in despair</div><div align="center">Struggling, I make my way through</div><div align="center">Trials, they come to make me strong</div><div align="center">I must endure, I must hold on</div><div align="center"></div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Chorus</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center"></div><div align="center">Above all my problems</div><div align="center">Above all my eyes can see</div><div align="center">Knowing God is able to strengthen me</div><div align="center">To strengthen me</div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Yet still I rise</div><div align="center">Never to give up</div><div align="center">Oh, Never to give in against all odds</div><div align="center">Yet still I rise</div><div align="center">High above the clouds</div><div align="center">At times I feel low Yet still I</div><div align="center">I need to know which way to go</div><div align="center">Yet still I</div><div align="center">At times I feel low</div><div align="center">Yet still I </div><div align="center">Oh Oh Oh I rise</div><div align="center">Yet still I rise</div><div align="center">Oh yes I do, yeah yeah</div><br />Today, I will ask God for the strength to press on.Tiffanyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17980414076194921495noreply@blogger.com
