The Right Thing Lyrics – Mandisa

The Right Thing Text

---

I got all my excuses
I got my list of fears
I've counted all the reasons why
You called the wrong hero to be here
It's not safe, it's just not worth it
Doing the right thing is just too hard
But I believed those lies for long enough
And I'm not gonna listen anymore

Cause I remember You said
When all hope is gone, help will come

And give me strength
To go farther, climb higher
Courage that burns inside like a fire
No turning back, this is the day
I will do what I need to
I'm gonna need You
I know Your love will come to the rescue
No turning back, this is the day
I'll do the right thing

I can do this
I can do this
I'm gonna do this
I can do the right thing
I can do this
Let me do this
I wanna do this
I can do the right thing

So what if I'm not the strongest
A little weaker than I'd like to be, well
Even I can do what's right because
I know, the King is calling me
To live a life worth looking up to
Holding on to what matters most
Nobody said it was gonna be easy
But I know I'll never be alone

Cause when all hope is gone
Help will come, come from above

And give me strength
To go farther, climb higher
Courage that burns inside like a fire
No turning back, this is the day
I will do what I need to
I'm gonna need You
I know Your love will come to the rescue
No turning back, this is the day
I'll do the right thing

I can do this
I can do this
I can do this
I can do the right thing
I'm gonna do this
Let me do this
I wanna do this
I can do the right thing

And give me strength
To go farther, climb higher
Courage that burns inside like a fire
No turning back, this is the day
I will do what I need to
I'm gonna need You
I know Your love will come to the rescue
No turning back, this is the day

Give me strength
To go farther, climb higher
Courage that burns inside like a fire
No turning back, this is the day
I will do what I need to
I'm gonna need You
I know Your love will come to the rescue
No turning back, this is the day
I'll do the right thing

I can do this
I can do this
I can do this
I can do the right thing
I'm gonna do this
Let me do this
I wanna do this
I can do the right thing
