I know that it gets tough sometimes, and I know that it can hurt,
He's my strength, he died for my existence, and I'm on alert,
Some days I do not feel like waking; I get tired of this earth,
Other mornings, I wake up shaking while a child is given birth,
I wonder how long you can keep this up, buried headlong in your work,
He's my strength, he died for my existence, and I'm on alert,
Yes, I'm on alert.
Thought the years will pass, people fade away, you will always be the same,
Though insignificant as a minute of the day, you will always know my name.
He's my strength, he died for my existence, and I'm on alert,
Yes, I'm on alert.
I am aware that you're the saviour of the world, and I know you're coming back,
And I'm on alert,
I'm on alert,
Yes, I'm on alert.
