Lyrics New - David Prince

In my hour of desperation as I watch you slowly falter
And I feel a profound sadness slowly sink into my heart
I start to contemplate a life where we won′t be together
And a kind of pain that feels as though it's tearing me apart
In a drawer beside your bed
I found a book I′ve seldom opened
Its purpose in my life I've failed to see
But in that hour of darkness, as I slowly turned the pages
I heard my father calling out to me
And he said

Soon, God's dwelling place will be among the people
I promise you that all these things are true
There′ll be no more crying, pain or death and no more sorrow
You′ll never be alone, I promise you
I'll wipe away your tears and make things new

I′m not the kind of guy who spends time contemplating heaven
I'm like a drowning man who′s grasping for a rope
For though I'm not so sure I understood or half believed them
I felt these words reach out to me and fill my heart with hope
And though the world may turn away and some may even mock me
And though my friends may think I′ve gone insane
Today I started praying for a way to start believing
That one day soon I'll see you and that you'll feel no more pain
Cause I know

Soon God′s dwelling place will be among the people
I promise you that all these things are true
There′ll be no more crying, pain or death and no more sorrow
You'll never be alone, I promise you
I′ll wipe away your tears and make things new

Soon God's dwelling place will be among the people
I promise you that all these things are true
There′ll be no more crying, pain or death and no more sorrow
You'll never be alone, I promise you
I′ll wipe away your tears and make things new
