Lyrics


Why am I so angry? Tell me it's not true. She didn't just say cancer. I don't know what to do.
I wish that I was with her. Her voice betrays her fear.
We'll cling to what God promised , the words we long to hear :

" I made you in my image, hid heaven in your heart. Loved you from the beginning. How could we be apart ? "

You say that you are with us but I don't hear your voice.
I know you chose to suffer...but do we have a choice?
First she lost her smile , Lord. Then she lost her hair.
She'll never lose our love, Lord. Remind us how you care.

You said , " I made you in my image, hid heaven in your heart. Loved you from the beginning. How could we be apart ? "

Someday all this darkness will give way to the sun. You'll finally know the blessings I have for everyone...

Instrumental ...

I'm trying to be hopeful , remember you are near. If heaven's in my heart then I have nothing left to fear...

I made you in my image, hid heaven in your heart. Loved you from the beginning. How could we be apart ? "
Oh oh, you made me in your image, hid heaven in my heart. Loved me from the beginning, how could we be apart ?
