🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
  • You gave me faith 'cause you believed
  • I'm everything I am because you loved me

Echo the hook

  • I'm everything I am
  • Because you loved me
  • (You were my strength when I was weak)
  • (You were my voice when I couldn't speak)
couldn'tgavebecause
