As I Fight - No Innocent Victim

Character never builds

When put to the side to grow on it’s own

Like the sharpened knife

It once had to grind against stone

The life that I have chosen

I wasn’t promised an easy way out

But when the hard times come

He’s there for me

That’s what He’s about

As I fight I’m not alone

Through the struggles I have grown

I failed Him before

And I will fail over and over again

He promised me not to leave

And with that how could I not win

Disoriented by change

Hard times come that’s one thing for sure

But He promises me that I won’t

See one more ounce

Than I can endure

When I feel like I am a failure

That is when I should surrender

Never to the opposing attack

But to His guidance

Right where I am at
