I SHALL NOT DIE, BUT LIVE (LYRICS)
When the dark night surrounds me,
And the road ahead is hard to see.
I’ll trust in the able hands of God,
I will rise and do His blessed will.
I shall not die, but live at His mercy,
I will proclaim what God has done!
The right hand of the Lord is mighty,
His salvation had led me through.
With His right hand, victory is won,
I shall not die, I’ll live to declare His work.
Every chain had broken before Him,
The dreadful fear had lost their grips.
The Lord restores my hope and courage,
And He has called me by my name.
I shall not die, but live at His mercy,
I will proclaim what God has done!
The right hand of the Lord is mighty,
His salvation had led me through.
With His right hand, victory is won,
I shall not die, I’ll live to declare His work.
I will joyfully live to tell of His wonders,
In adoration I will sing and praise my King.
Through the valley, and through the fire,
I’m saved and secured in the Lord’s hand.
I shall not die, but live at His mercy,
I will proclaim what God has done!
The right hand of the Lord is mighty,
His salvation had led me through.
With His right hand, victory is won,
I shall not die, I’ll live to declare His work.
