Something Inside So Strong: Live ft Annatoria & Ché Kirah | The Spiritua...

This is the live version of "Something Inside So Strong" ft Annatoria & Ché Kirah. Originally released on TBN as a powerful tribute to songs that have marked monumental moments in black history, music and culture; singer/songwriter, Junior Garr and choir conductor, Marsha B. Morrison, navigated The Spirituals Choir in a time of great uncertainty to give a message of hope. “This is a collection of negro spirituals and songs that have inspired and championed the story of black people. With all that is happening in the world today there has never been a better time for the power of music to bring us together. This is a commemoration of not only our breakthrough and achievements but also an acknowledgement of the continuous pain and sorrow experienced by Black people today. We must find a way to foster and fight for the justice and equality of Black individuals everywhere. Justice and the good news go hand in hand.” Lyrics: The higher you build your barriers, the taller I become, The further you take my rights away, the faster I will run, You can deny me, you can decide to turn your face away, Something inside so strong, I know that I can make it, though you're doing me wrong, so wrong You thought that my pride was gone, oh no, Something inside so strong, oh oh oh, Something inside so strong The more you refuse to hear my voice The louder I will sing (I will sing louder) You hide behind walls of Jericho (wey oh) Your lies will come tumbling Deny my place in time, you squander wealth that's mine My light will shine, so brightly it will blind you Something inside so strong (something inside), I know that I can make it, though you're doing me wrong, so wrong You thought that my pride was gone, oh no, Something inside so strong, oh oh oh, Something inside so strong They say what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, A warrior, more than a survivor, you can thrive, Transformed by adversity you face, Every challenge on your way, strand strong, you can overcome They try to beat us down but we rise above the struggle Never giving up under pressure we don't struggle Instead we discover gold inside, as we realise, no matter what, you'll never dull our shine Deny my place in time, you squander wealth that's mine My light will shine, so brightly it will blind you Something inside so strong (I know that I), I know that I can make it (Though you're doing me wrong) Though you're doing me wrong, so wrong You thought that my pride was gone, oh no, Something inside so strong, oh oh oh, Something inside so strong Something inside so strong, oh oh oh, Something inside so strong Something inside so strong, oh oh oh, Something inside so strong Oh, Oh, Oh

Richard Smallwood - It Is Well/Come, Ye Disconsolate

We cannot always say that everything is well in our lives. There will always be problems to face, and sometimes there will be tragedies. But with faith in a loving God and with trust in His divine help, we can confidently say, “It is well, it is well with my soul.”

When peace, like a river, attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows roll; whatever my lot, thou hast taught me to say, It is well, it is well with my soul.

As Christians, even through our trials and tears, we are called to look through the eyes of faith and,say, “It is well.” It is well not because of our strength but because of God's power. It is well not because our stories always work out the way we want, but because God works for our good.

And Lord, haste the day when my faith shall be sight, The clouds be rolled back as a scroll; The trump shall resound, and the Lord shall descend, Even so, it is well with my soul.
