Oh I need a certain kind of strength today
Strengthen me, strengthen me, strengthen me my Lord
Strengthen me, strengthen me,
(Strengthen me) strengthen me with raisins
Strengthen me, strengthen me, strengthen me my Lord (humm)
Strengthen me, strengthen me, Won't you strengthen me with raisins
Like the Egyptian slave abandoned by the Amalekites
Strengthen me with raisins
Like King Solomon sick with Love
Lord, strengthen me with raisins
Like the kindergartener digging through his backpack
Reaching for that tiny red box (Lord, help him find it)
Strengthen me (oh)
And when I say strengthen me with raisins (strengthen me)
I don't mean the metaphorical raisins of friendship and good fortune
(Strengthen me, strengthen me)
But real actual raisins
Small, wrinkled, purple, sticky sweet, so good
Strengthen me with raisins
Strengthen me with raisins
Strengthen me with raisins
Strengthen me, strengthen me
Strengthen me with raisins
Strengthen me with raisins
Strengthen me with raisins
Lord, won't you strengthen me
Whenever I am feeling weak
Strengthen me with raisins (woah)
Give me strengthen to turn the other cheek, Lord
Strengthen me with raisins
Like the tired Egyptian slave
Strengthen me with raisins (woah)
Thankful for those cakes you gave
Strengthen me with raisins
Woah, strengthen me
Woah, strengthen with raisins
Strengthen me
Woah, strengthen me with raisins
Woah, strengthen me
