Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

There are burdens that I carry everyday
Sometimes they make me want to cry
Hopeless feelings harbored deep inside my heart
And I find it hard to hold my head up high
In the middle of the darkness in my life
I find a strength to carry on
I am holding to a promise Jesus made
And I know it won't be long 'til we'll be gone.

[Chorus:]
In a while we'll be gone
And we won't have to cry anymore
All our sorrows left behind
And that's the day that I am waiting for
And that's the day that I am longing for

If you feel there is no meaning in your life
And it seems you've lost your way
Listen closely to the voice that's deep inside
And remember what the Savior has to say

[Chorus]

In a while we'll be gone
And we won't have to cry anymore
All our sorrows left behind
And that's the day that I am waiting for
And that's the day that I am longing for
And that's the day that I am looking for
