1. It's not easy trying to understand How the world can be so cold, stealing the souls of man Cloudy skies rain down on all your dreams You wrestle with the fear and doubt Sometimes it's hard but you gotta believe R: There's a better place, where our Father waits And every tear he'll wipe away The darkness will be gone, the weak shall be strong Hold on to your faith 2. Wars a raging, lives a scattered Inocence is lost and hopes are shattered Old are forgotten, the young are forsaken In this world we're livin' in Is there anything sacred R: There's a better place, where our Father waits And every tear he'll wipe away The darkness will be gone, the weak shall be strong Hold on to your faith *: The song will ring out down these golden streets The voices of earth with the (stop) angels will sing Every knee will bow, sin will have no trace In the glory of his amazing grace Every knee will bow, sin will have no trace In the glory of his amazing grace
