By the Spirit

I’m standing here with open arms
I’m learning where my help comes from
And I’m singing like the battle’s won, oh
'Cause I’m learning where my strength comes from
Not by power
Not by might
By the Spirit of God
Up to the heavens
I lift my eyes
Fully surrendered
All of my life
I’m laughing in the face of fear
'Cause Your perfect love is with me here, oh
And I’m living in Your victory
'Cause heaven is surrounding me
Not by powеr
Not by might
By the Spirit of God
Up to the heavеns
I lift my eyes
Fully surrendered
All of my life
All my life
You can have it all, Lord
Ooh, all my life
No weapon against me
Your Spirit within me
My help is from the Lord
My help is from the Lord
In joy and in sorrow
Today and tomorrow
My help is from the Lord
My help is from the Lord
No weapon against me
Your Spirit within me
My help is from the Lord
My help is from the Lord
In joy and in sorrow
Today and tomorrow
My help is from the Lord
My help is from the Lord, yeah
Not by power
Not by might
By the Spirit of God
Up to the heavens
I lift my eyes
Fully surrendered
All of my life
Up to the heavens
Gonna keep my eyes on You
Gonna keep my eyes on You
Oh, I set the Lord always before me
Gonna keep my eyes on You
My heart
My soul
For You alone
My heart
My soul
For You alone
I wanna follow where You lead me
Follow where You lead me
Up to the heavens
I lift my eyes
Fully surrendered
All of my life
Up to the heavens
I lift my eyes
Fully surrendered
All of my life
