Analysis of Be Encouraged
Belinda Richmond 1979 (Chicago)
Be Encouraged, Don't throw in the Towel
You have gone through struggles for quite a while
Be Encouraged and Keep the Faith
Be Patient, Content and in Him just Wait.
Be Encouraged for your struggles won't Last
Sooner or Later they'll be in the Past
You're ready to give up, you just can't Win
Don't wave the White Flag this isn't the End.
Be Encouraged Fight for what's Right
Your Hardships are Dark but your Blessings are Light
Be Encouraged and from this you'll Know
When the time is Right Blessings will Overflow.
Be Encouraged for in this Be Strong
Even through Hardships He was there all Along
Be Encouraged because this I Know
The Pain you endure will help you to Grow.
