ENCOURAGE YOURSELF
Artist: Donald Lawrence & The Tri-City Singers lyrics
Album: Finale
Year: 2006
featuring Sheri Jones-Moffett
[Verse 1:]
Sometimes you have to encourage yourself.
Sometimes you have to speak victory during the test.
And no matter how you feel,
speak the word and you will be healed;
speak over yourself,
encourage yourself in the Lord.
[Verse 2:]
Sometimes you have to speak the word over yourself,
the pressure is all around,
but God is present help.
The enemy created walls,
but remember giants, they do fall;
speak over yourself,
encourage yourself in the Lord.
[Bridge:]
As I minister to you, oh I minister to myself,
life can hurt you so,
'til you feel there's nothing left.
(No matter how you feel),
(speak the word and you will be healed).
[Vamp 1:]
Speak over yourself. [x4]
[Vamp 2:]
I'm encouraged.
I'm encouraged.
I'm encouraged.
I'm encouraged.
[Vamp 3:]
I'm encouraged,
I'm encouraged,
I'm encouraged,
I'm encouraged.
[Vamp 2]
[Vamp 3]
[Vamp 2]
[Ending:]
(Speak over yourself),
(encourage yourself in the Lord).
