From the recording I Will Not Be Broken
This could be for anyone who is struggling to understand difficult seasons, experiencing loss, or simply trying to find hope in the midst of hard times. It’s for those who seek Jesus and find in Him the peace, strength, and hope they need to keep moving forward without allowing the hardships of this life to break them. Originally written in 1997 after hearing my friend play his song about hope in Jesus after his sermon.
Lyrics
Verse
Dust on my boots, scars on my soul,
I've walked some roads that took their toll.
I've stumbled hard, I've lost my way,
But Your mercy meets me every day.
Chorus
I will not be broken.
I will not bow to fear.
Through every storm that finds me,
I know You're always here.
Though I stumble, I will rise,
Your truth will see me through.
I'll keep seeking You in all my ways—
Lord, I'm holding on to You
Bridge
The night is long, the road is steep,
But You are every promise I can keep.
With every step, my faith is growing strong—
With You is where I belong.
Final Chorus
I will not be broken.
Your grace has made me strong.
No matter where this road may lead,
With You I carry on.
Though I stumble, I will rise,
Your love will see me through.
I will not be broken—
'Cause I'm walking, Lord, with You.
