I have been through what you cant see
I am not perfect cuz I am human, I am me
I fought the battle, nothing ever came free
I have crossed the ocean, I have swam the sea
I have watered the seed, I have pruned the tree
Yes! It's my time to shine, I am the queen bee!!
I cant be any one better than me
I am the Strong Black Woman!
Yes! I am ((fill in your name))
True! I am black & beautiful
Indeed! I am wise & strong
True! My platform is the sky
I cant be any one better than me
I am the Strong Black Woman!
I have swum against the turbulent wave
Nature has given me the closest shave
Despite the toils and boils, I behave
Death dug for me a mighty deep grave
Was lost but my soul, GOD offered to save
Blessed with wit and courage, I am brave
I cant be any one better than me
I am the Strong Black Woman!
With Christ in me, I am complete
I smile for I see no reason to cheat
His melodies are smooth, none is offbeat
He purchased my sins and I have a receipt
I live for his joy and that alone is sweet
Ask me and the joys of heaven I will repeat
I cant be any one better than me
I am the Strong Black Woman!
