Prompt:

Everything Is Gonna Be Alright Verse 1 Yesterday my chemo treatment was a tad bit rough, it's true, But I got no complaints, I'm still pushing through. Twenty-one more treatments, counting every week, So stay with me, my family and friends, as I pray. To the ones who walk by faith and never leave my side, You're the kind of company that helps me through the night. And God, Your company never has to leave, My beloved loved ones never have to leave me. Every night I'm praying, Lord, You're by my side, And we know the devil is a lie. Through every tear and every fight, I keep on saying— Chorus Everything is gonna be alright, Everything is gonna be alright. With God's love shining through the night, Everything is gonna be alright. Verse 1 I wrote a song before called Cancer Beat It, Beat It, And I'm here to tell the world, I still believe it. Family and friends, thank you for holding me down, Your love lifts me up when life spins around. This journey is mine, don't carry my pain, Don't take on my burdens, don't wear my chains. Walk by faith, not by sadness today, This forty-six-year-old will make it, just watch me, I say. Oh, watch me rise, watch me stand, With God's strength guiding every plan. I'm still here, still holding tight, Because everything is gonna be alright. Chorus Everything is gonna be alright, Everything is gonna be alright. When faith is stronger than our sight, Everything is gonna be alright. Verse 3 To the Dupree, the Harrises, the Williamses too, And every extended family member, this song is for you. You helped shape the fighter standing here today, You gave me strength in your own special way. Grandma Harris, I still hear your voice so clear, "You are my granddaughter," your words are always near. You told me I'm a part of you, and I believe it still, Your love lives inside me and always will. I'm part of all the warriors, every bloodline and name, Family is family, and love stays the same. No matter the religion or who we praise above, We believe, we believe in faith and love. Pre-Chorus Every part of my being belongs with all of you, The blessings of these families have carried me through. Don't give up on me, I won't give up on you, Our faith keeps making all things new. Stay prayed up, keep believing when it's hard to see, Another testimony is waiting for me. I'll seek Him in the darkness, seek Him in the pain, And every step I take won't be in vain. We all have stories, we all have scars, Keep telling your testimony wherever you are. God wants me here for His purpose, I know it's true, And Heaven and Earth stand beside me too. (Soft Humming): Mmmmmm... mmmmmm... Oh Lord... oh Lord... Lead Vocal: If you're fighting a battle, don't give up now. If you're walking through the valley, don't turn around.
