Having led worship for many years and having been transformed by the power and presence of God through corporate worship, I began to feel the call of God on my life to write some worship songs, using his Word as the impetus of my work. I wrote I Can Do All Things inspired by the incredible verse of promise from Phillipians 4:13, “I can do everything through him who gives me strength,” and added some of the names we associate with our God and Savior we read about throughout scripture: Mighty God, Prince of Peace, Redeemer (full lyrics below). As I wrote music to this powerful promise, I wanted a song to help me remember this promise when this life beats the life out of you. We all face frustrations, roadblocks and discouragements, but the promise offered by this verse helps us remember He has us in the palm of his hand and we just need to act as if our desired result has already been done. In writing I Can Do All Things, I wanted to do a song that people could easily engage in with the music and the words of promise. This song is meant to encourage the body of Christ with the truth of God’s word. Be encouraged!

I Can Do All Things
I can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens me
I can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens me
You are my sword and shield, You are my warrior
You are my mighty God, You are the Prince of Peace
You are the great I Am, You are my hope and joy
You are the spotless Lamb, You are my Savior
I can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens me
I can do all things through Jesus Christ who strengthens me
You are my healer, my redeemer
You are my source of strength, You are my guiding light
You’re my creator, You are my shepherd
Immanuel, You are my Savior
