| Dear God, why should I think You’re good
 | 
| In a world that’s falling apart?
 | 
| The flags and lies, picket signs raised high
 | 
| The endless enveloping dark
 | 
| Now here we sit, drifting further from You
 | 
| Two thousand years on their way out
 | 
| Now here I am as I’ve grown to know You
 | 
| Still haunted by my fears and my doubts
 | 
| Just a man, just a vapor, just a waste of Your space
 | 
| All the good that I’ve done is in spite of myself
 | 
| I’m not sure that I can look You in your face
 | 
| When I finally set foot in Your kingdom
 | 
| Dear God, what went wrong?
 | 
| We hate ourselves, we hate our brother
 | 
| We so desperately want to find our way
 | 
| And all You say is, «Love one another»
 | 
| And little babies starve to death
 | 
| Emaciated, out of breath
 | 
| Unfaithful wives make vows untrue
 | 
| Husbands beat them black and blue
 | 
| Junkies vomit in the streets
 | 
| Writhing twitching in their skin
 | 
| Sell themselves to die some more
 | 
| Rotting from the outside in
 | 
| Parents steal the innocence
 | 
| From their children, scared and shaking
 | 
| Drink away the guilt at night
 | 
| Brings quiet to the endless aching
 | 
| And evil men boast on TV
 | 
| Swimming in a sea of wealth
 | 
| While misery beds honest men
 | 
| And lonely people kill themselves
 | 
| And everyone cries out your name
 | 
| As the world is raped by selfishness
 | 
| And no one knows the way to heaven
 | 
| We only know the emptiness
 | 
| And the storm, it rages in my heart
 | 
| And the endless empty roars in my ears
 | 
| My world is coming all apart
 | 
| I’ve no strength left to dry my tears
 | 
| And through it all I hear Your voice
 | 
| Breaking my heart, breaking my will
 | 
| Calms the storm inside my soul
 | 
| As You whisper, «Peace, be still»
 | 
| You place Your hands around my heart
 | 
| You quiet the emptiness in me
 | 
| A King that kneels, a God made a servant
 | 
| You set the captives free
 | 
| You wait for me, a wretch of a man
 | 
| No record of wrongs do You keep
 | 
| You are comfort when I mourn
 | 
| You are strength when I am weak
 | 
| Jesus Christ, the King of kings
 | 
| Though we ache, though we cry, never break, never die
 | 
| We sing of His great love again and again
 | 
| And His love reigns forever and forevermore
 | 
| Forever and ever, Amen |
