You shove me down

But I get up

You try to keep me hidden

But my fire will never die

You take my trust

But never will my hope leave me

Never my faith will fail me

I may be black and blue

But I still keep going

There is nothing you can do to break me

I am strong and I will persevere

Never quitting or stopping

My faith stands strong alongside me

And my hope is our crutch

You shove me down

But we get up
