Now some may wonder why

I keep a smile on my face as I run this race

I haven't thrown in the towel

Though the going got tough, still I kept my place

It's the power in me

But it's the Father above that gives me all the love

I need to go on, be strong and move on

When I'm weak, He gives me

Power (power)

To fight this fight (yeah)

Stand for what's right (right)

Hold a little longer

Power (power)

Anoint myself, encourage myself

There's power in the name of Jesus

When I'm weak, I call on the name of Jesus

Can I get a witness? (Yeah)

'Cause when I'm feeling weak, He gives me power

Oh, oh, oh (yeah)

Now some might look at me

And see how far I've come, 'cause I'm not where I started

It's no power of my own

But the strength inside of me that I was leaning on

Without it, I would lose, no I wouldn't survive

But in that He gives me strength, and He's my guide

To go on, be strong and hold on

Power (power)

To fight this fight (oh)

Stand for what's right (stand for what's right)

Hold a little longer

Power (power)

Anoint myself (oh), encourage myself

I find power in the name of Jesus

And when I'm down, I call on the name of Jesus (yeah)

Can I get a witness? (Yeah) yeah

'Cause when I'm feeling weak, He gives me power (power, power, yeah)

(Ooh) when I'm running on empty, I can just open my mouth (and He fills me up)

That's why I keep Him with me, He gives me more (more) love enough

Power (ooh)

To fight this fight (ooh)

Stand for what's right (oh, oh)

Hold a little longer (oh)

Power (power)

Anoint myself, encourage myself (anoint my-, encourage myself)

Help me call His name Jesus

When I'm weak, I call on the name of Jesus (oh, yeah, yeah)

'Cause when I'm feeling weak, He gives me power (power, yeah)

Jesus (Jesus, Jesus, Jesus)

Jesus (there's salvation in the name)

Jesus (Jesus)

Jesus (nobody like him, oh)

Jesus (every knee must bow, oh)

Jesus (every tongue must confess)

Jesus (and all you gotta do is call on)

Jesus (ooh, yeah)

'Cause when I'm feeling weak (I'm feeling weak), He gives me power (ooh, yeah)
