I know you've been hurt by someone
And you feel your smile is gone
No one can understand your tears
Or what you've been through just to make through
The pain that you felt hurt so deep inside
And you often ask yourself why
[Chorus:]
But you survived, you survived
All The pains that you went through
But Jehovah brought you through
You survived, you survived it all
You may have lost a loved one
And you can't understand why they're gone
Just understand god makes no mistake
And they're smiling down from a better place
The pain that u felt hurt so deep inside
And you often ask yourself why
[Chorus]
By the grace of GOD
You made it through
With a strength in GOD
He gave to you
In spite of all
You can smile again
You can hold your head up high
[Chorus]
You survived, you survived, you survived, you survived ooooo [x3]
After all that you've been through know you know GOD carry you through the rain and pain and fall and pain
