Chris van der Westhuizen

God is my krag,
my lewe en my lied.
Niks kan ooit
sonder Hom geskied.

Daarom sing ek met eerbied
vir alles wat Hy aan my bied.

Deur krag verkry van Bo,
ja, dit kan jy verseker glo -
kan ek met sekerheid aanpak
alles wat die lewe bak.

Want God is my krag,
my lewe en my lied.
Niks kan ooit
sonder Hom geskied.

God Is My Strength

God is my strength,
my life and my song.
Without His hand,
nothing can go on.

So I sing with reverence true,
for all He gives and brings me through.

With power sent from Heaven above -
yes, this I boldly know and love -
I face each challenge life may send,
with courage only He can lend.

For God is my strength,
my life and my song.
Without His hand,
nothing can go on.
