Another song I might record one day:
When it Seems…
When your nation’s soul is crumbling
As its purpose slowly dies;
A man of principle can’t find
A sight to soothe his eyes.
All around are trace reminders
Of the way things used to be
When honour, fortitude and trust
Were found abundantly.
Now the enemy is laughing
And his power seems secure,
Your allies are collapsing
And it seems you can’t endure:
There’s a hope that will never fail
There’s a power that’s above the sky,
You are part of a wondrous tale
Of love that simply will not die.
When the sickness overwhelms you
And your body’s wracked with pain;
The strength that always got you through
Has been completely drained,
There’s a truth that keeps you going
Through the fury of the storm;
There’s a kindness overflowing
That will all these woes transform
Into scars of pride and glory
In the kingdom that’s to come
As we witness the full story
Of the Father and the Son:
There’s a hope that will never fail
There’s a power that’s above the sky,
You are part of a wondrous tale
Of love that simply will not die.
