Persecuted, but not forsaken
Cast down, but not destroyed
I have something this world can't take
Away from me
No matter how hard you try, you can take it
I may even have to cry, but I'll make it
There's joy for my sorrows, hope for tomorrow
I have something this world can't take away
I've been
In the midst of my trials I will be all right
In the midst of my pain
I know I will, I'll survive
There's joy for my sorrows
I have hope for tomorrow
I have something this world can't take away
I've been
Persecuted, but not forsaken
Cast down, but not destroyed
I have something this world can't take
Away from me
Can't take my joy away
I'm a survivor, I'll make it
I'll make it
Can't take my joy away
