Believe

Saw the leaves
in the window changing colors
but troubles
are weighing on my heart
oh, and a part
of me seems slowly dying
i'm crying
there's a thorn in my side
can you not see me?
can you not free me?
will you not leave me?
will this cross subside?
I believe
even though this pain won't go away
i will believe
i believe
even though this pain
this pain
won't go away, yeah
the cut is growing deeper
i'm weaker
but i am holding on
If i could see
the road that lays before me,
would knowing
make me turn away?
oh, afraid of things that i might suffer
for another
so i bleed
in hopes that i'll uncover
the love, oh
the wanting has to cease
oh the need for me to linger longer
be stronger
i feel i must concede
i know you see me!
you will not leave me!
your grace will free me!
i lay it on the line
I believe
even though this pain won't go away
i will believe
i believe
this hope will tide me over
i'm stronger
in my weakness
oh, it's sometimes hard to see it
but i am holding on
and on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on...
I believe
even though this pain won't go away
i will believe
this hope will tide me over
i'm stronger
in my weakness
oh, it's sometimes hard to see it
but i am holding on
