Lyrics

When the love in this world runs cold
And hands you it's promises broken
Betrayed, dismayed, left alone
It puts you on display
When your wounds are wide open.
Then I hear you say,

"I can pray, in God confide
And bid Him come to heal, that He'll abide.
Yes, I can raise my voice on high."
He answers: peace.

Just how could we have known
That such pain could come
From their lies spoken?
(trust was broken)
Unseen, yet it stings to the soul
'Til we wonder
"What's on earth for us to hope in?"
Then I hear you say,

(chorus 2)
"We can pray, in God confide
And bid Him come to heal, that He'll abide.
Yes, we can raise, voices on high."
He answers: peace.

A love so strong
It'll break through their havoc and hate
To make you whole, heal your heart
Ease your mind
That's what you'll find

If we'll pray...

(chorus 2)

And if I walk a lonely road
At least I know my worth, I'm not undersold
Yes, I will raise my voice on high
He answers: peace.
