Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I glory in my trouble
I will lift my head
I won't be discouraged no
Cause when I'm sad he made me glad
Persecuted but not forsaken
Cast down but not destroyed, oh
Because when I'm weak
That's when I am
That's when he made me strong

I won't fear tomorrow
I won't fear none of my foes
I will stand in victory
Even though Lord
For you see on the outside, I might seem to parish, I might see the parish
But in my soul, in my mind, in my will in what I feel
I'm renewed everyday
Cause when I'm weak that's when I, when I am strong

For I know no defeat
Said I know only love
Sometimes you got to say it till you see it
All is well, I declare, all is well, well
For when I'm weak (that's when I'm at my best y'all) that's when I am strong
For I know no defeat, said I cannot lose
I know only love, sing children
Now I declare
All is well
Everything is well, everything is well
All is well, well
For I'm weak, I'm weak, that's when I am strong, strong
Cause when I'm weak, that's when I am strong

I know no defeat
I know only love
All is well
All is well, well
For when I'm weak (somebody lift your hand, say) that's when I am strong
