I know, you know, 
We all have taken blows
At times the weight is more 
Than you and I can bear
I hurt, you hurt 
We live and breathe the word
But through it all it's good to know
We need to know 
That Jesus is there
And you will never have to face the hurt alone

When you're waiting 
Through the hard times
Hold on, don't let go
Waiting through the hard times
Will only make you strong, hold on

I cry, you cry, 
Life takes us by surprise
Before you know, 
It'll catch you unaware
I need, you need, 
Much more than sympathy
But through it all it's good to know
We need to know 
That Jesus is there
And you will never ever have to cry alone

When you're waiting 
Through the hard times
Hold on, don't let go
Waiting through the hard times
Will only make you strong, hold on

When you're waiting 
Through the hard times
Hold on, don't let go

You will never ever have to cry alone

When you're waiting 
Through the hard times
Hold on, don't let go
Waiting through the hard times
Will only make you strong, hold on
