My Strength
by Deborah Ann Belka

Lord, my strength isn't in my bones,
for they are weak and too frail
my strength is in the knowledge
You are the wind beneath my sail.

My strength does not come,
from anything that I can do
for I have very little power
if it does not come from You.

My strength cannot be found,
by going to the gym or the spa
my strength is when I surrender
and exercise to You my holy awe.

My strength is thin and feeble,
and sometimes I cannot stand
but when I partner up with You
my muscle is in Your right hand.

My strength won't move mountains,
unless my faith in You is right
but I can walk on the darkest sea
when I am lead by Your light.

My strength will not measure up,
when compared to Your own
my burdens are just too heavy
not to leave them at Your throne!

Philippians 4:13

" I can do all this through him who
gives me strength."
