Strong Enough

You must

You must think I'm strong

To give me what I'm going through


Well, forgive me

Forgive me if I'm wrong

But this looks like more than I can do

On my own

I know I'm not strong enough to be

everything that I'm supposed to be

I give up

I'm not strong enough


Hands of mercy won't you cover me

Lord, right now I'm asking you to be

Strong enough

Strong enough

For the both us

Well, maybe

Maybe that's the point

To reach the point of giving up


Cause when I'm finally

Finally at rock bottom

Well, that's when I start looking up

And reaching out


I know I'm not strong enough to be

Everything that I'm supposed to be

I give up

I'm not strong enough


Hands of mercy won't you cover me

Lord, I'm asking you to be

Strong enough

Strong enough


Cause I'm broken

Down to nothing

But I'm still holding on to the one thing

You are God

and You are strong when I am weak


I can do all things

Through Christ who gives me strength

And I don't have to be strong enough

Strong enough


I know I'm not strong enough to be

Everything that I'm supposed to be

I give up

I'm not strong enough


Hands of mercy won't you cover me

Lord, right now I'm asking you to be

Strong enough

Strong enough

~Matthew West
