Anybody holding on to hope today?
Is there anybody holding on to faith?
Is anybody at the end of their rope?
It's gonna be a brighter day
I want you to know
It's gonna get better after a while
It's gonna get better after a while
It's gonna get better after a while
It's gonna get better after a while
(Is anybody holding onto hope?)
Anybody holding on to hope today?
(Is anybody holding onto faith?)
Anybody at the end of your rope?
(Is anybody at the end of their rope?)
It's gonna be
(It's gonna be a brighter day)
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
Is anybody holding on to hope?
Is anybody holding on to faith?
Is anybody at the end of their rope?
It's gonna be a brighter day
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while

Through fear, you made it
Through tears, you paid it
By faith, you held on
You've been strong
Right through the storm
Through fear, you made it
Through tears, you paid it
By faith, you held on
You've been strong
Right through the storm
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
Through fear, you made it
Through tears, you paid it
By faith, you held on
You've been strong
Right through the storm
Through fear, you made it
Through tears, you paid it
By faith, you held on
You've been strong
Right through the storm
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
It's gonna get better after while
