It can sometimes seem to us
As though we fall behind,
Other things seem to happen
That crowds our troubled minds
There are days we feel as though
We can't bear it anymore,
What's the use of carrying on
When we struggle in the life
source
Why all this needless grief?
And why do we carry on?
Frustration is our only companion
Each day that we face
Is the dawning of a new pain
We feel a sense of hopelessness
When we see that nothing's changed
Joylessness and uselessness,
It seems that's all we have
Even though we know Christ,
We've lost the enthusiasm
The anguish of a man
Whose soul is twisted in grief,
It seems as though it will never end,
Our hearts continually bleed
Is there hope in going on?
Is there hope in God?
Who is He that will carry us,
When we're in so much pain
We might have lost a loved one,
We might have lost a job,
Though we feel all these pain
God stays faithful and true
He fully understands our pain
Jesus, too, has felt real anguish
That night he died on the cross
Torn between living His life
And doing the right thing
Hanging there on the cross
He felt the heaviness of our sin,
He saw the pain in our hearts,
And the bondage we are in
He won the victory over darkness
He overcame death,
In His hand, He holds the keys
The key that unshackled us
And sets our spirits free
source
So, yes, there's hope in carrying on
And reason to believe,
Jesus Christ is our hope in life
He can turn that situation around
He is hope for today,tomorrow
And for eternity.
Let the tear drop dry
And let a smile surface today
