Can't Take This Away...

They can say,
Anything they wanna say,
Try to bring me down,
But I will not allow,
Anyone to succeed,
Hanging clouds over me.

And they can try, hard
To make me feel that I
Don't matter at all,
But I refuse to falter
In what I believe,
Or lose faith in my dreams...

Cause there's a light in me,
That shines brightly,
They can try...
But they can't take that away from me.

They can do,
anything they want to you,
If you let them in,
But they will never win,
If you cling to your pride,
And just push them aside.

I have learned,
There's an inner peace I own.
Something in my soul,
That they cannot possess
So I wont be afraid
And the darkness will fade.

Cause there's a light in me,
That shines brightly,
They can try,
But they can't take that away from me.

They can't take this,
Precious love I'll always have inside me,
Certainly the Lord will guide me,
Where I need to go..

They can say,
Anything they want to say,
Try to break me down,
But I won't face the ground,
I will rise steadily,
Sailing out of their reach.

Oh Lord,
They do try hard
To make me feel that I
Dont matter at all...
But I refuse to falter,
In what i believe,
Or lose faith in my dreams.

Cause there's a light in me,
That shines brightly,
They can try,
But they cant take that away from me...
