To a Brighter Time

My heart is bleeding, heard through the ceiling
When I am hopeless, loveless, and breathless
I look ahead to a brighter time
You're the one that I will always find

So I thank You God, You give me reason to rejoice
When I am frightened, and there is sadness in my soul
Despite the darkness, it will not rob me of my joy
In situations that You said we won't avoid

I am reeling, fullness of feeling
Life is beyond us, Your hand, our lives
Look at the flowers and look at the birds
They sing Your praise when they don't have words

So I thank You God, You give me reason to rejoice
When I am frightened, and there is sadness in my soul
Despite the darkness, it will not rob me of my joy
In situations that You said we won't avoid

Through my tears, You are good
In my fears, You are good
I have proof You are good
Through all the torture of the world

When I wait, You are good
Among hate, You are good
I still know You are good
Through all the torture of the world

From my side, You are good
When I hide, You are good
Where I've lied, You are good
Through all the torture of the world

In my mind, You are good
Beyond time, You are good
You have always been good
Through all the torture of the world

So I thank You God, You give me reason to rejoice
When I am frightened, and there is sadness in my soul
Despite the darkness, it will not rob me of my joy
In situations that You said we won't avoid
