Tamika

Lord, I come to you just as I am

A woman learning how to stand

I try to be compassionate and kind

Leaving all the heavy weight behind

I'm still growing, taking it day by day

Walking in forgiveness, seeking your way

Tamika's heart is open to the sky

Lord, I need your spirit by my side

God, please don't give up on me

Without you, I'm nothing, I'm on my knees

Keep me strong when the road gets long

Fill up my soul with a victory song

I'm living every day for my little girl

Be my foundation in a shaking world

I remember the moment I became a mom

Holding my daughter in my open arms

It gave me a purpose, a reason to fight

To step out of the shadows and into the light

And I still hear my father's voice in my ear

Saying "I will always love you," loud and clear

That memory is a shelter in the rain

A gentle love that washes out the pain

God, please don't give up on me

Without you, I'm nothing, I'm on my knees

Keep me strong when the road gets long

Fill up my soul with a victory song

I'm living every day for my little girl

Be my foundation in a shaking world

I know I'm lovable, I know I am strong

But it's in your presence where I belong

I'm forgiving the past, I'm moving ahead

Trusting every word that you have said

Hold on to Tamika, hold on tight

Keep my spirit burning bright

Oh God, please don't give up on me

Without you, I'm nothing, I'm on my knees

Keep me strong when the road gets long

Fill up my soul with a victory song

I'm living every day for my little girl

Be my foundation in this shaking world

Keep me strong, Lord, keep me strong
