With that in mind, I took the time to write down the lyrics, Laura-Lee Style.
You'll need some extra "Base Boost" on this one.
To play, "Overcomer" by Mandisa, look in the right column, Click the tiny "Play" symbol on the bar beneath, crank up the volume and read along. Enjoy! You'll be humming this one later. It might take a moment for the song to upload to my blog. It's travelling from another website.

LYRICS to "OVERCOMER" by Mandisa
Staring at a "Stop" sign
Watching people drive by
T-Mac on the radio
Got so much on your mind
Nothing's really going right
Looking for a ray of hope
Oooooo
Whatever it is you may be going through (oooo~~~ooo~oooooooooo)
I know He's not gonna let it get the best of you
You're an Overcomer
Stay in the fight ‘til the final round
You're not going under (you're not going under)
‘Cause God is holding you right now
You might be down for a moment
Feeling like it's hopeless
That's when He reminds you
That you're an Overcomer (waaa ~ oooo oooo)
You're an Overcomer (waaa~ooooooo)
Everybody's been down
Hit the bottom, Hit the ground
Ooooo, you're not alone
Just take a breath, don't forget,
Hang on to His promises.
He wants You to know ...
You're an Overcomer !!!
Stay in the fight ‘til the final round
You're not going under (you're not going under)
‘Cause God is holding you RIGHT now
You might be down for a moment
Feeling like it's hopeless
That's when He reminds you
That you're an Overcomer (wa~oooo ~ ooooo)
You're an Overcomer (wa~oooooo~ooo)
The same Man, the great "I Am"
The one who overcame Death
Is living inside of you.
So just hold tight, fix your eyes
On the One who holds your life.
There's nothing He can't do !!
He's telling You ~~~ OOOOOOOO
(Take a breath, don't forget,
hang on to His promises.)
(Kickin' Drum Solo)
You're an Overcomer
Stay in the fight ‘til the final round
You're not going under (you're not going under)
‘Cause God is holding you right NOW
You might be down for a moment
Feeling like it's hopeless
That's when He reminds You
That you're an Overcomer
You're an Overcomer
"You, dear children, are from God and have overcome, because the One who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world." 1 John 4:4
(Everybody get ready to sing ...)
Don't Quit, Don't give in
You're an Overcomer
Don't quit, Don't give in
You're an Overcomer
Don't quit, Don't give in
You're an Overcomer
You're an Overcomer
("End with drums, please? Thanks.")
