VERSE 1
Lord, I’m wrestling with the question You’ve been asked for ages
Why do bad things happen to good people
I see chaos in the news and all the wrongs this world can do
And my prayers, they feel weak and feeble

Yet even through the rain
The sorrow and the pain
I believe, oh I believe….

CHORUS
Through the tears I feel you near     
As you hold my heart   
You are never far
Your sweet love will be enough    
To carry me tenderly 
Through the tears

VERSE 2
I sit here with my neighbor as she walks through the heartache
Of a life that’s torn apart and broken
I take her hand and pray you will give me words to say
As your peace comes over all that’s spoken

She lifts her weary head
With hope renewed she says
I believe, Oh I believe

CHORUS
Through the tears I feel you near     
As you hold my heart   
You are never far
Your sweet love will be enough    
To carry me tenderly ………

BRIDGE              
You’ve been there in the fire
I have felt Your mighty hand
Lord, let me be Your witness       
So the broken understand…. 

CHORUS
