Have you ever looked back and wished you'd taken your own advice?  I wrote this song one afternoon when I had a strong feeling that the mountain I'd been sitting on was about to crumble.  I knew what I had to do to make it through, I wrote all about it, but I didn't follow it.  Now, over a month later, I'm still facing the consequences that brought me.  When trouble hits you, cling to God, it's the only way you'll make it through

Can't take it alone

Been on the mountain top
Been able to spread my wings and fly in Your arms
But now disaster's struck
And I find I cannot handle the valley
I know that when this is over
I look back and know it made me stronger
But right now, right now
I can't take it alone
I can't take it alone
I know I'm not...
This world around me is spinning
Spinning and spinning and spinning and spinning me dizzy
The joy that yesterday brought
I thought would give me hope but it seemed to have disappeared
I know that when this is over
I'll look back and know it made me stronger
But right now, right now
I can't take it alone
I can't take it alone
I know I"m not alone

Take me Lord, O lift me higher
Make me Lord, into something more then the weakling I feel like I am
Break me Lord, if it's what it takes
Change me into someone with faith

Cause what I once had
Is now disapearing
Where is this joy,
This joy that I'm missing
If this humbles me
Let it remind me
WhoYou are, What You are

(Peace... it's overflowing)
(Faith...it's everlasting)
(Love...it's what I want You to feel)
