When We Can't Carry On

8 January 2003

With a word of encouragement today, and a glance at an earlier entry, a friend’s email quoted this verse: ”Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.” Luke 5:5

His Strength is Perfect
by S.C. Chapman/Salley

I can do all things through Christ
Who gives me strength;
But sometimes I wonder
What He can do through me?
No great success to show
No glory on my own
Yet, in my weakness
He is there to let me know.

His strength is perfect
When our strength is gone.
He’ll carry us
When we can’t carry on.
Raised in His power
The weak become strong.
His strength is perfect
His strength is perfect.

We can only know
The power That He holds
When we truly see
How deep our weakness goes;
His strength in us begins
Where ours comes to an end
He hears our humble cry
And proves again…

His strength is perfect
When our strength is gone.
He’ll carry us
When we can’t carry on.
Raised in His power
The weak become strong.
His strength is perfect
His strength is perfect.
