i believe

from amidst the pain, i can hear the cries of dying nations, for a thousand years, they've been calling out for sweet salvation, and time after time, they've put it all on the line, for the promise of a much better way, but their eyes fill with tears as the joy turns to fear, as they watch it all just drifting away, if they could only hear me when i say, i believe that his loving arms, are waiting to hold them forever, i believe that his faithful heart, is calling them out of the cold, in a dark, cold world, there's a lonely girl whose heart is breaking, there's a boy who seeks, and his mind is ripe just for the taking, they learn what they can, from whatever's at hand, with the promise of a much better way, but when life doesn't change, and the struggles remain, still god is there to work through the pain, if they could only feel his warm embrace, and time after time, we put it all on the line, for the promise of a much better way, but when life doesn't change, and the struggles remain, still god is there to work through the pain, if we can feel his warm embrace,
