Yesterday, I laid in my bed
Made up my mind to stay there instead
Fighting the same old fight
That I always lose by night
Somehow, sometime mid afternoon
As the sunshine lit up my room
Somethin' made me sigh
And get up for one more try
Something bigger than me, braver than me
Helps me to face the day
Helps me to find my way
And makes me believe
That I'll be okay
Somethin' greater than me, wiser than me
Shows me where I go wrong
Knows when I'm down too long
And gives me the hope
I need to be strong
Something I can't explain
Soothes me like summer rain
Listens when I complain
Even in my dreams
Somethin' bigger than me, kinder than me
Loves me the way I am
And in some wondrous plan
Helps me to be the best that I can
Something I never doubt
Knows what I'm all about
Says it will all work out
Even in my dreams
Something bigger than me, that's what I see
Each time a chance comes by
Or somebody new says, "Hi"
Or I start to laugh when I thought I'd cry
When miracles happen, I always know why
What could it be
But somethin' bigger than me?
