christine

Looking back at the girl I used to be

High school graduation, a whole life in front of me

It took a little patience to face the great unknown

But with a resilient heart, I was never alone

I learned to trust the timing and weather every storm

Finding comfort in a faith that keeps me warm

And I will sing of the goodness of God

For the grace in the journey I've trod

Through the laughter and tears, through the joy and the grief

I am held by a beautiful, quiet belief

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

He is the light that helps my spirit see

Now I'm walking the grounds at Coastal Carolina U

Getting this job was a prayer He answered true

I still keep my humor when the days get a little long

Knowing in my soul that I am right where I belong

I look in the mirror and I tell myself, Christine

You are living out the hope of a faithful dream

And I will sing of the goodness of God

For the grace in the journey I've trod

Through the laughter and tears, through the joy and the grief

I am held by a beautiful, quiet belief

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

He is the light that helps my spirit see

Patient in the waiting, resilient in the fire

Keeping my eyes on a calling that's higher

I've learned how to smile when the pressure is on

Because Jesus has walked with me into the dawn

So I will sing of the goodness of God

For the grace in the journey I've trod

Through the laughter and tears, through the joy and the grief

I am held by a beautiful, quiet belief

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

He is the light that helps my spirit see

Yes, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me
