I just learnt the tragic news of Steven Curtis Chapman’s 5 year old daughter, Maria Sue being fatally injured as a result of being knocked by a Sports Utility Vehicle driven by her teenaged brother. In this moment of grief, I can only pray that Steven and his family would be able to find strength in God. I first got to know about Steven when I was introduced to his song “His Strength Is Perfect” back in 2002. We were then rehearsing for choir and our choir conductor asked us to sing this song for the worship service. Indeed, this song became infectious due to its meaningful words so much so that during my wife’s labour with our first daughter, we were both singing this song in the labour room. Truly, my wife and I found strength in God during the labour pains and God delivered us a beautiful baby daughter. God’s strength resulted in my wife not having to rely upon any painkillers during labour.
Steven Curtis Chapman, thank you for the song “His Strength is Perfect” which helped us through during our difficult times. I hope this song will also be your remembrance of God’s strength during your grief too. My condolences to you and your family.

Lyrics : Through It All
You are forever in my life
You see me through the seasons
Cover me with Your hand
And lead me in Your righteousness
And I look to You
And I wait on You
I will sing to You, Lord
A hymn of love
For Your faithfulness to me
I’m carried in everlasting arms
You’ll never let me go
Through it all
Hallelujah, hallelujah

I first learnt this song sometime in the year 2002 or early 2003 and found it such a beautiful song about how we can draw all our strength through Christ Jesus. It came as no surprise that during my wife’s labour pains, we were softly singing this song to draw strength. God delivered to us a beautiful baby girl 
Lyrics for His Strength is Perfect.
I can do all things
Through Christ who gives me strength,
But sometimes I wonder what He can do through me;
No great success to show, No glory on my own,
Yet in my weakness He is there to let me know . . .
CHORUS
His strength is perfect when our strength is gone;
He’ll carry us when we can’t carry on.
Raised in His power, the weak become strong;
His strength is perfect, His strength is perfect.
We can only know
The power that He holds
When we truly see how deep our weakness goes;
His strength in us begins
Where ours comes to an end.
He hears our humble cry and proves again . . .
(chorus)
« go back — keep looking »
