Without Him

All my life I have worked for all that I currently own
All of it is mine, cuz I worked my fingers to the bone. 
My papa would tell me; never owe a debt to anyone
Because they will own you till the day you are gone. 

I've had many headaches and heartaches through the years
And each one of those struggles caused me a lot of tears.
But because I heed my papa's advice, I learned to persevere.
It was so much easier to confront all my trials and my fears.  

It doesn't matter what circumstances come your way.
You have to deal with them the best you can every day.
Trials you face through the years only make you stronger
This is only one more problem, an issue you may conquer.

I've learned through the years, I can't do things on my own
My spiritual values and strength have been my backbone.
Before I give credit to any man, I should thank God for everything
Without Him, I would fail and my accomplishments wouldn't mean anything.
