I Didn't Know My Own Strength

Lyrics hide

Written by Diane Warren

Lost touch with my soul
I had nowhere to turn
I had nowhere to go
Lost sight of my dream
Thought it would be the end of me
I thought I'd never make it through
I had no hope to hold on to
I, I thought I would break

Chorus:
I didn't know my own strength
And I crashed down, and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn't know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour
My faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up
Hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength

Found hope in my heart
I found the light to life
My way out the dark
Found all that I need
Here inside of me, oh
I thought I'd never find my way
I thought I'd never lift that weight
I thought I would break

Chorus

There were so many times
I wondered how I'd get through the night
I thought I took all that I could take

Chorus

I was not built to break, no no
I got to know my own strength
