Beaten but not broken,
down but not out . . .
for I am in this fight
to win the bout.
Shattered but not crushed,
weak but not frail . . .
for there’s no way I’ll let
satan to take me to hell.
Tattered but not torn,
bleak but not resigned . . .
for my heart and God’s
will always be aligned.
Fragile but not hopeless,
mournful but not blue . . .
for nothing can shake
my faith Lord in You.
Beaten but not broken,
for I’m in it to win it . . .
tis why you won’t see me
ever give up or quit!
~~~~~~~
We are troubled on every side,
yet not distressed;
we are perplexed,
but not in despair;
Persecuted,
but not forsaken;
cast down,
but not destroyed;
Always bearing about in the body
the dying of the Lord Jesus,
that the life also of Jesus might
be made manifest in our body.
