Give Me Strength
Rich Shapero & Orenda Fink
GENRE Waves collide, into a trough you slide
And now there’s no seeing out
Battered and wrenched, tugged and stretched
The shaking in your core mounts
Now
Give me strength, give me pride, make me bold
Put this world and its lives in my control
Your feet touch the sand, and now you stand
Threads of picket birds circling your cheeks
Naked and striped, in a lake of light
Head towering above the peaks
Now
Give me strength, give me pride, make me bold
Put this world and its lives in my control
The blue arms reach—a tornado each
In the canyons, swarms ignite
A fresh start, a new race, a great city awake
A million minds alight
Now
Give me strength, give me pride, make me bold
Put this world and its lives in my control
And this strength and pride makes me bolder
I have heaven on my side
And now there’s no seeing out
Battered and wrenched, tugged and stretched
The shaking in your core mounts
Now
Give me strength, give me pride, make me bold
Put this world and its lives in my control
Your feet touch the sand, and now you stand
Threads of picket birds circling your cheeks
Naked and striped, in a lake of light
Head towering above the peaks
Now
Give me strength, give me pride, make me bold
Put this world and its lives in my control
The blue arms reach—a tornado each
In the canyons, swarms ignite
A fresh start, a new race, a great city awake
A million minds alight
Now
Give me strength, give me pride, make me bold
Put this world and its lives in my control
And this strength and pride makes me bolder
I have heaven on my side
