VERSE 1
Life is a test of Persistence
You only reap what you sow
Sometimes you’ll want to give up, yeah
Trust me I know
The race is not for the swift one
Endure and keep trotting through
What God has promised for you
Is only for you
The rains will fall
The winds will blow
The seeds of doubt will come, but
Don’t let them grow

CHORUS 1
The Lines on my face
The glaze in my eyes
They paint a picture of the years
They mark the tears that I cried
Every time that I fell
In grace did I rise
That’s the story of my years
This is the story of my life
Story of My Life x4

VERSE 2
I’ve seen God’s grace in abundance
Every test built my faith
You never know how much you’ll grow
Until you have failed
Make your plans in your heart, but
Let God guide your steps
My son hear my instructions
That your days may be well
The rains will fall
The winds will blow
The seeds of doubt will come, but
Don’t let them grow

CHORUS 2
The Lines on my face
The glaze in my eyes
They paint a picture of the years
They mark the tears that I cried
Every time that I fell
In grace did I rise
That’s the story of my years
This is the story of my life
Story of My Life x4

Bridge
When everything I had was gone,
And all my hope seemed to run dry
When life’s work seemed to be lost
When there were no more tears to cry
I put my faith in something more
Than I could hold or see or buy
That’s the story of my faith
And that’s the story of my life
Story of My Life x4
