The good book says
I ought to love my enemies
Not just the folks who seem
To show their love for me
Well it's not easy not one bit
I often fail I must admit
But I've been trying Lord
I've been trying Lord

Chorus:

I'm succeeding, Lord
I'm succeeding, Lord
And I'll keep climbing, Lord
I'll keep climbing, Lord
I'll keep holding on to Your hand

The Bible says I ought
To live like Jesus too
And do the things my Lord
Has said that I must do
Well it's not easy not at all
I often fail, I sometimes fall
But I've been trying Lord
I've been trying Lord

(Repeat Chorus)

I've tried too often Lord
To make it on my own
I've learned that I can
Never never stand alone
But holding firmly to your hand
You give me grace
That helps me stand and

(Repeat Chorus)
