When you say, that you’re done
And you cannot carry on
When you’ve lost all your will to fight
When breathless, you run
A tangled life undone
And sunny days are as blackest night
When you scar your own face
In the hopes that your disgrace
Will be hid by your marred skin-mask
And you’re wretched and poor
And you’ve locked fast every door
To everyone whom you’ve loved, days past
Cast your cares upon the Lord
He’s the one who can afford
Passage up from guilt to peace
Onward into righteousness
Yes, there will be suffering
From without and from within
Yet, not worthy of compare
Is it to the joy we’ll bear
When the years tick by fast
Reminded of ghosts past
In the mirror, a face creased, hair all grey
Just look up, see Christ there
Bearing up your tears
Not long now till he wipes them away
Cast your cares upon the Lord
He’s the one who can afford
Passage up from guilt to peace
Onward into righteousness
Yes, there will be suffering
From without and from within
Yet, not worthy of compare
Is it to the joy we’ll bear
