Through the Fire

So many times I questioned certain circumstances
Of things I did not understand.
And many times in trials, weakness blurs my vision,
and my frustration gets so out of hand.
Its then I am reminded I've never been forsaken
I've never had to stand the test alone.
As I look at all the victories
The spirit rises up in me
It's through the fire
my weakness is made strong

CHORUS

He never promised
that the cross would not get heavy
and the hill would not be hard to climb
He never offered victory without fighting
But he said that help would always come in time
so just remember when you're standing
in the valley of decision and the adversary says give in
Just hold on, my Lord will show up, and he will take you through the fire again.

I know within myself that I would surely perish
but if I trust the hand of God
He'll shield the flames again, again.

He never promised that the cross would not get heavy
and the hill would not be hard to climb.
He never offered victories without fighting,
but he said help would always come in time.
Just remember when your standing in the valley of decision
and the adversary says give in
just hold on, our Lord will show up
and he will take you through the fire again.
