I know where I am going,
Because I choose to live in the light,
And I know I will struggle,

But I have God by my side.
Evil is all around me,
Testing me to do what's wrong,

But I will not back away,
For God has made me strong.


God has saved me from my pain,
And for Him I will stand.
I've been made new,

By the blood that was shed.
I've been made strong,
By His power over death.


I will stand strong to His name.
I will stand strong without shame.

I will stand strong in the midst of pain.
For to live is to die,
And to die is to gain.
