Courage

I confess that going through down and out hard times are just plain rough. We discovered this really uplifting song by Orianthi featuring Lacey of Flyleaf (we are Flyleaf fans!) . Very inspirational!! The video is fantastic and I thought that it was ironic that they were in an old Winnebago similar to the one my daughters are staying in while we work to remodel our old mobile home we will be moving into before winter (see this post). 

Courage

Take all my vicious words

And turn them into something good

Take all my pre-conceptions

And let the truth be understood

Take all my prized possessions

Leave only what I need

Take all my pieces of doubt

And let me be what's underneath

Courage is when you're afraid,

But you keep on moving anyway

Courage is when you're in pain,

But you keep on living anyway

We all have excuses

Why we're living in fear

Something in us dies

Like a bird with broken wings

It's not how high he flies,

But the song he sings

Courage is when you're afraid,

But you keep on moving anyway

Courage is when you're in pain,

But you keep on living anyway

It's not how many times

You've been knocked down

It's how many times you get back up

Courage is when you've lost your way,

But you find your strength anyway

Courage is when you're afraid

Courage is a burning faith,

Courage is when you make a change,

And you keep on living anyway

You keep on giving anyway

Courage is when you're in pain

But you keep moving anyway

You keep on loving anyway
