[Chorus: Yolanda Adams]
I've come through many hard trials
Through temptations on every hand
Though Satan's tried to stop me
And to place my feet on sinking sand
Through the pain and all of my sorrows
Through the tears and all of my fears
The Lord was there to keep me
For He's kept me in the midst of it all

[Verse: Yolanda Adams]
Not because I've been so faithful
Not because I've always obeyed
No, it's not because I trusted Him
To be with me all of the way
But it's because He loves me so dearly
He was there to answer my call
He was there always to protect me
For He's kept me in the midst of it all

[Chorus: Choir, (Yolanda Adams)]
I've come through (Oh yes, I have) many hard trials
(Through temptation on every hand)
Through temptations on every hand
(And Satan was there)
Though Satan's tried to stop me (Trying to stop me)
And to place my feet (On sinking sand) on sinking sand
(Oh, but Jesus loves me so dearly)
But Jesus loves me dearly (Yes, He does)
He was there (He was there) to answer my calls
(To answer every call, yes, He was, He was there)
There always (Always) to protect me
(To protect me, and He kept)
For He's kept me in the midst of it all
[Bridge: Choir, (Yolanda Adams)]
(Oh, no, no, no, He never)
No, he's never (Never) left me (Never left me, yes)
And he's never (He's never let me, never let me fall) let me fall
Oh yes He will (He will) protect you
(Protect you, I know He will)
For He's kept me (He's kept me) in the midst of it all
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
No, he's never (No) left me (He will never leave you)
And he's never let me fall
(Because He never let me fall)
Oh yes (Yes, He will) He will (He will) protect you
(Protect you, yes, He will)
For He's kept me in the midst of it (All, all, all, all, yeah)

[Outro: Yolanda Adams, (Choir)]
Oh, yes (Yes), He kept me (He's kept me)
He kept me when times were hard and rough, yeah, yeah, yeah (Yes)
He's kept me (Jesus kept me)
I thought I could do it on my own
But Jesus, Jesus, Jesus (Yes)
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus (He's kept me)
He kept me when I wanted to do wrong, yes, He did
He kept me, yeah, yeah (Yes)
He kept me (Jesus kept me)
When I thought I was going to lose my mind, Jesus kept me
(Jesus kept me)
With His power, Jesus kept me (Jesus kept me)
He didn't let me fall, Jesus kept me (Jesus kept me)
Right there, right there in the midst, in the midst of it all
(In the midst of it all, yes)
Yeah, I don't know what you're going through (Jesus kept me)
But will you allow me to encourage you? (Jesus kept me)
I know if He did it for me, for me, for me (Jesus kept me)
For me, for me, for me, for me, He will do the same for you, yeah
(In the midst of it all)
Jesus, Jesus (Yes, He did)
Jesus, Jesus (Yes, He did)
I don't know nobody else (Yes, He did)
To call on in times of trouble (Jesus did)
I tried my mother (Yes, He did)
And I know she loves me (Yes, He did)
I tried my family (Yes, He did), woo
And I know that He loves me (Jesus did)
But no, no, no, no, no, no, no (Yes)
No, no, no, nobody (Yes)
Nobody but Jesus (Yes), woo
Nobody but Jesus (Jesus did)
He held my hand (Yes)
He brought me through (Yes)
He wouldn't let me fall (Yes)
So let me encourage you (Jesus did)
Don't give up (Yes, He did)
Don't give in (Yes, He did)
I don't care what nobody else say (Yes, He did)
You can win (Jesus did)
With Jesus, with Jesus, with Jesus (Yes, He did)
With Jesus, you can make it (Yes, He did)
Come on and understand (Yes, He did)
You have everything inside of you to take it (Jesus did)
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
