Read the morning paper Boy, it sure looks bad Satan's workin' hard To make this world go mad But I believe there's more to life Than really meets the eye You and I will live when This world's long gone by Hand in hand With the past left far behind Through the darkest night, we'll shine And together we will stand Hand in hand We become a mighty wall We will march right past it all We will find that promised land Nothing lasts forever So we've all been told But you and I know better God is in control Heaven is a doorway Jesus is the key There's a new world waiting Come and walk with me Hand in hand With the past left far behind Through the darkest night We'll shine and together we will stand Hand in hand We become a mighty wall We will march right past it all We will find that promised land Hand in hand With the past left far behind Through the darkest night We'll shine and together we will stand Hand in hand We become a mighty wall We will march right past it all We will find that promised land Hand in hand With the past left far behind Through the darkest night We'll shine and together we will stand Hand in hand We become a mighty wall We will march right past it all We will find that promised land
