What Do You Do?

(Marian Marie)
1st Verse
What do you do when you feel like you’ve loved and you’ve got nothing left
What do you do when you feel like you’ve given your very best
What do you do when you feel like you’re failing all life’s tests
What do you do when you pray but you can’t find the words to say

B-Section
You could choose to cry and lay down and die
Give up the fight only seeing your plight
Or stand in His power the one true strong tower
Hold on and try to keep from saying…

Hook
“Why”, do I have to cry?
“When” will my life begin?
“How” can you tell me now?
Then He says so lovingly

“Wait”, just wait on Me
“Trust”, just trust in Me
“Believe” in what you can’t see
Wait on Me, wait on me (Have faith in Me)

“Stand”, with all you can
“Press”, through all the mess
“Believe” in my master plan
Know I can, know I AM

2nd Verse
How do you cope with the lost of a love, feeling there was so much hope
How do you deal with the pain in your life trying so hard just to heal
How do you handle staying on track, while some want you out the race
How do you keep a clean heart in tact after going thru all those attacks

B-Section
You could choose to cry and lay down and die
Give up the fight only seeing your plight
Or clear your mind and start making the climb
All you gotta do is keep from saying

Hook

Bridge
Like a boxer in a ring you’ve got to put up everything
Like a soldier on the field, you’ve got to wear my shield

Hook
