I Didn’t Know My Own Strength (Junior’s Alternate Demo) Songtext
von Whitney Houston

Ooh, yeah

Lost touch with my soul
I had nowhere to turn, I had nowhere to go
Lost sight of my dream
Thought it would be the end of me

I, I thought I′d never make it through
I had no hope to hold on to
I, I thought I would break

I didn't know my own strength
And I crashed down and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn′t know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour, my faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up, hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn't know my own strength, oh


Found hope in my heart
I found the light to light my way out of the dark
Found all that I need
Here inside of me, oh

I thought I'd never find my way
I thought I′d never lift that weight
I thought I would break

I didn′t know my own strength
And I crashed down and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain
I didn't know my own strength
Survived my darkest hour, my faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up, hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn′t know my own strength

There were so many times I
Wondered how I'd get through the night, I
Thought I took all that I could take


I didn′t know my own strength
And I crashed down and I tumbled
But I did not crumble
I got through all the pain, oh
I didn't know my own strength
My faith kept me alive
I picked myself back up, I hold my head up high
I was not built to break
I didn′t know my own strength, mmm-hm-hm

I was not built to break, no, no
I got to know my own strength
