Lyrics

Verse 1 Never faced a battle that he couldn’t win All you ever wanted was to be like him But he drank his way through your teenage years Now you’re stuck with the bill for your father’s sins These are the stories I tell myself Verse 2 This town has a ceiling that you’ll never break through You’ll always be alone in a crowded room And no matter how hard you work, it’s true You’ll never be enough just being you These are the stories I tell myself Chorus 1 When I think of Abraham Counting the stars up in the sky When I think of Jacob Fighting an angel for his life When I think of Joshua Walking around the walls until they fell These are the stories I tell myself These are the stories I tell Verse 3 My children, there are lessons that I cannot teach There's always going to be something out of reach By the grace of God, you’ll remember well These are the stories you’ll tell Tag 1 These are the stories I tell myself These are the stories I tell Bridge And when I think about Jesus And when I think about Jesus Verse 4 He never faced a battle that He couldn’t win And all I ever needed I found in Him And He made His way through the wilderness From glory to glory, He is my story Chorus 2 When I think of Abraham Counting the stars up in the sky When I think of Jacob Fighting an angel for his life When I think of Joshua Walking around the walls until they fell If they went before me, then these are the stories Chorus 3 I think of Noah Looking for a sign after the rain When I think about Moses Speaking for the powerless in faith When I think about Joseph Dreaming at the bottom of a well These are the stories I tell myself These are the stories I tell Tag 2 These are the stories I tell myself These are the stories I tell myself...
