Give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
 Give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
 I understand that the world is bigger
 Than I ever thought possible
 I recognize my action knock on you
 Even if I've never met you
 I don't have to see you to know you exist
 I don't have to meet you to feel your suffering
 Want to make a difference don't know where to start
 Well it ain't in oblivion
 You're not at the bottom
 You're not at the top
 You're just part of something bigger than all of us
 Collectively we choose, what
 Give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
 Give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
 There comes a time when all the lights are on
 When the time is right to start things off
 That's time that you're got to get along
 Bare down, bare down
 There are times that I can't quite explain
 Why it works and why it can't be the same
 How it's going to be, the future's not clear to me
 And we're stuck in this like everybody else
 Trying to find away that doesn't step on toes
 I'm happy to get along minding my own
 Head down, head down
 Give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
 Give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
 Oh give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
 Oh give me the strength
 To carry through
 Give me the breath
 To do what I got to do
