Though you've been hurt by someone
And you feel your smile is gone
No one can understand your tears
Or what you've been through just to make it here
The pain that you felt hurts so deep inside
And you often ask yourself why
But you survived (you survived)
You survived (you survived)
All the pain that you went through
But Jehovah brought you through
You survived (you survived)
You survived (you survived), it all
You may have lost some loved ones
And you can't understand why they're gone
Just understand God makes no mistakes
And they're smiling down from a better place
But the pain that you felt hurt so deep inside
And you often ask yourself why
But you survived (you survived)
You survived (you survived)
All the pain that you went through
But Jehovah brought you through
You survived (you survived)
You survived (you survived)
You survived it all
By the grace of God you made it through
With His strength and power He gave to you
In spite of all you can smile again
You can hold your head up high, You survived
You survived (4x) Oh
After all that you've been through
Now you know God carried you
Through the rain (rain), and the pain (pain)
Then you called and He came, Oh
