John 1:1-5

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

Psalm 1-2

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

Proverbs 3:5-9

5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil. 8 It shall be health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. 9 Honour the Lord with thy substance, and with the firstfruits of all thine increase: 10 So shall thy barns be filled with plenty, and thy presses shall burst out with new wine.

Psalm 139:23-24

23 Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. 24 See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.

I Didn’t Know My Own Strength

Ooh, yeah, Lost touch with my soul
I had nowhere to turn,
I had nowhere to go
Lost sight of my dream, Thought it would be the end of me
I, I thought I'd never make it through
I had no hope to hold on to
I, I thought I would break
I didn't know my own strength

And I crashed down and I tumbled, But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn't know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour, my faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up, hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength, oh

Found hope in my heart
I found the light to light my way out of the dark
Found all that I need
Here inside of me, oh
I thought I'd never find my way
I thought I'd never lift that weight
I thought I would break
I didn't know my own strength

And I crashed down and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn't know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour, my faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up, hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength

There were so many times I
Wondered how I'd get through the night, I
Thought I took all that I could take
I didn't know my own strength
And I crashed down and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain, oh
I didn't know my own strength

My faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up, I hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength, mmm-hm-hm
I was not built to break, no, no
I got to know my own strength
