Song Lyrics

I see you smiling
Life is tearing you apart
Looking good on the outside
But I can feel your heart
You feel helpless and hopeless
Isolated and confused
You feel like that there lays no purpose
So let this word encourage you

You shall live (you give, you shall live, you shall live)
And not die (mm-hmm)
Though you've been hurting
For sometime (for sometime)
(Listen beloved) by faith (oh)
You shall live (you shall live)
And not die
Though you have been hurting (and though)
For sometime (for sometime)
By faith (by faith)
You shall live (you shall live)

I see you standing there
With a towel in your hands
Getting ready to throw it in
Like no one really understands
They don't, don't understand
Here is what you must remember, yes
That you're in this for a reason
Don't give up just keep the faith
Soon you'll be walking in your season

You shall live (you shall live)
And not die
Though you've been hurting (though you've been hurting)
For sometime (for sometime)
By faith (by faith)
You shall live (you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you, you're gonna live)
And not die (don't lose the faith)
Though you've been hurting
For sometime (for sometime, oh)
By faith
Just remember, just remember

(He'll never) he'll never put more on you
Than you than you can bear
It may be hard right now (it may be hard)
Just know that he cares
You shall (live)
Live (I command you to live)
Live (it's your only option, yes, it is)
Live

(By faith) by faith you shall (you shall live)
Live (you're gonna live through the hurt and the pain)
Live (you're gonna live through the heartache and shame)
Live
(By faith) by faith you shall
(Listen, listen, listen, yeah)
I know you feel like giving up right now (live)
'Cause you don't know which way to go (live)
Well I stopped by here to tell you (live)
Just for a little while
You can always go to the lord, yeah-yeah, yeah

By faith you shall
Just live on (live)
Declare it over your life (live)
Just speak it (live)
Just speak it
And it'll work it out
By faith you shall live (you, you, you, you shall live)
Live (whenever the devil is a liar)
Live (just know his contract has expired)
Live (and you shall live, oh)
By faith you shall

You shall live and not die, no, no, no, no
Though you have been hurting
I understand, for sometime
By faith
Declare it
You shall live and not die, no, no
Though you have been hurting for sometime
By faith you shall live
