Song Meaning
This anthem of resolve draws on a gallery of biblical figures to frame a personal declaration of courage. The singer identifies with David facing a giant, Jonah tempted to flee, Moses doubting his calling, and Daniel praying in the lion's den—each a moment where human weakness meets divine strength. The chorus becomes a vow: to be strong, brave, and faithful, pressing through valleys because they lead to God. The bridge pivots on the promise that God has not given a spirit of fear but of power, love, and a sound mind, echoing 2 Timothy. The song's energy is infectious, with a shouted call to action and a repeated affirmation that builds in intensity. It's a rallying cry for anyone who feels outmatched, reminding them that stepping up in faith means trusting that God will carry them through. The concrete imagery of standing in the illuminating light of grace and leaving shadows behind turns abstract courage into a vivid, forward-moving journey.

Let’s Go!
Yeeeeeaaahh
Just like David, I’m facing a giant
Just like Jonah, I’m tempted to run
Just like Moses, I’m finding it hard to believe I’m your chosen one
Just like Daniel in the den of the lion, well all I can do now is pray
That you fill me up with your holy power
And give me the courage to say
I’m gonna be strong
And I’m gonna be brave
I’m gonna stand proud in the illuminating light of your grace
And I’m gonna be faithful
I’m gonna be true
I’m gonna press on through the valley as long as it leads me to you
I’m gonna be strong
Just like Peter in the eye of the storm, I’ve come to this moment of truth
I have chosen to step up my faith and believe you will carry me through
You put this piece in my heart and I know that I’ll be alright
You remind me that all things are possible if I just trust you with all of my might
So I’m gonna be strong
I’m gonna be brave
I’m gonna stand proud in the illuminating light of your grace
And I’m gonna be faithful
I’m gonna be true
I’m gonna press on through the valley as long as it leads me to you
Oh you did not give us a spirit of fear
But of power of love and sound mind
You are calling us now to step up our faith and leave all the shadows behind
So I’m gonna be strong
And I’m gonna be brave
I’m gonna stand proud in the illuminating light of your grace
And I’m gonna be faithful
I’m gonna be true
I’m gonna press on through the valley as long as it leads me to you
I’m gonna be strong
I’m gonna be stong, yeah
Yes I’m gonna be strong
I’m gonna be
I’m gonna be strong
Hey, I’m gonna be brave
I’ve gonna be faithful
I’m gonna be true, Oh Oh!
I’m gonna be strong
