Karen Clark Sheard - Can't Take It Lyrics
[Verse 1:]
I would go on throughout my day,
Thought I was okay,
But I really didn't have commitment.
They didn't see me cry,
I really could hide my torment.
Though it seemed I was fine,
It continued all the time,
I'm only human and the pressure is getting to me.
[Chorus 1:]
I just can't take it no more,
My strength has walked out the door
I just can't take it no more,
Just want to lay down and die,
God, if You hear me, come near me,
You're my only hope.
[Verse 2:]
I wish I had another chance,
I would fervently seek Your hand,
I would've survived the avalanche.
I didn't see the road to take,
So I gave my life away,
And there's no way I can pray from a grave.
Though it seemed I was fine,
It continued all the time,
I'm only human and the pressure is getting to me.
[Chorus 1]
[Bridge:]
Listen to me, You can do all things
If you turn to God, One who made you...
[Chorus 2:]
You've got to take a little more,
Your strength has walked out the door,
And it left you and told you it can't go no more.
You've got to take a little more,
Might want to lay down and die,
Just know God hears you, He's near you,
He's your only hope.

This song just hits it right on point. This is so beautiful and authentic. I start crying in the beginning and by the end I have a smile and have that hope she sings about.
You're my only hope
I feel this way
needed to hear this today
What differnces between gospels and carols songs
I enjoy the lyrics of this song, its so real, but I appreciate the arrangement and vocals as well.
God is my only hope! Amen! I love this song. It speaks to the heart, the body, the mind, & the soul. God is one - billion percent authentic. I love you, Jesus.
isn't it amazing how Christian music was a true love song in the older times I'm in my earlier 20s and I love music like this it grabs me
I love this song
When I was around 10 or 11 my family would play this song and we would just listen to it on repeat. Never did I think I would be running around the house trying to find this cd at 24. Lord know I wanted to give up....Actually I did give up until this song started playing in my head. couldn't find the cd so I came here. I just had to hear it, it was a must.
Same here love omg 😊
I remember as a young child sitting on my moms lap and back then i didn't understand what this song meant to her but now i understand very well thank you mom for imparting this song in my life.
Lord this song made me feel so much better thank u lord for this song
I need this song in my life right now! I want to 'literally' lay down and die, but I am looking to the Lord to change things around!
I so agree I pray that you're better now and that I get thru what I'm going thru real soon
+Nikki S. I am better! Thank you for being concerned. I had to get to the root of somethings in my life - whether my past, selfishness, and or the fact that I was not "totally" trusting in God; and when I did, I can say that my mind has been renewed, my heart is changed, and my life will never be the same. Thank you, Jesus! God has a blessing and miracle with your name on it.
@Fasha Moore I'm glad to know you're doing better! Keep the faith and don't give up! Everything we go thru is only a test!!
@Nikki S. - Amen!
This song got me through so many test and trials.
