I see you smiling
Life is tearing you apart
Looking good on the outside
I can feel your heart

You feel helpless and hopeless
Isolated and confused
You feel like that there lays no purpose
So let this word encourage you

You shall live, and not die
Though you've been hurting for sometime
By faith you shall live, and not die
Though you have been hurting for sometime
By faith you shall live

I see you standing there
With a towel in your hands
Getting ready to go in
Like no one really understands
They don't, don't understand

Here is what you must remember
That you are in this for a reason
Don't give up, just keep the faith
Soon you will be walking in your season

You shall live, and not die
Though you've been hurting for sometime
By faith you shall live, and not die
Though you have been hurting for sometime
By faith

Just remember, just remember
He will never put more on you
Than you, than you can bear
It may be hard right now
Just know that he cares

You shall live, live, live
By faith you shall live, live, live
By faith you shall live, live, live
I know you feel like giving up right now

By faith you shall live, live, live
By faith you shall live, live, live
By faith you shall

You shall live and not die, no, no
Though you've been hurting, I understand, for sometime
By faith declare it

You shall live and not die, no, uh, no
Though you've been hurting for sometime
By faith you shall live
