Bend Not Break

Time will tell if we really have what it takes This live can crush us underneath its weight When the river rushes over your feet When the bulls are running through your streets

You don't have to run from the fears behind you Turn around and I'll stand beside you Take my hand and remember We may bend but will not break Together we may bend But will not break

Oh, on the front line you're gonna feel the bullets, gonna feel the heat And when the battles that you fight call you to turn the other cheek When the fire at your back burns bright And when the mountains up ahead are so high

You don't have to run from the fears behind you Turn around and I'll stand beside you Take my hand and remember We may bend but will not break Steel your heart and lift your head 'Cause we have love and faithfulness So take my hand and remember We may bend but will not break Together we may bend But will not break

And if ever you should feel like giving up Remember that God is with us And if ever you should fear you may lose Remember that you don't have to run
