I shall live – Kerlyne Liberus – Lyrics
When I was a child
I was on the verge of losing my life
But God said no, yes he said no
Cause I was sick
And no doctor could find what was wrong
All hope was gone, all hope was gone
But when my parents prayed God transformed my death into life
I was created to serve and not die
Ref
I shall not die, but I shall live
And I shall proclaim what the Lord has done for me
He may chasten me so severely
But one thing is sure he shall never give me over to death.
2
So as I sing
I want to lift the Lord’s name on high
Cause he saved me, yes he saved me
And if I can breathe
It’s only because of his mercy
So I am grateful, I am grateful
The Lord knew how much my parents would have cried
He didn’t have to but he let me live
Bridge
Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I shall not fear, I shall not fear
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me
Because thou art with me, I shall live, I shall live…
