From amidst the pain
I can hear the cries of dying nations
For a thousand years
They've been calling out for sweet salvation
[Channel:]
And time after time
They've put it all on the line
For the promise of a much better way
But their eyes fill with tears as the joy turns to fear
As they watch it all just drifting away
If they could only hear me when I say
[Chorus:]
I believe that His loving arms
Are waiting to hold them forever
I believe that His faithful heart
Is calling them out of the cold
In a dark, cold world
There's a lonely girl whose heart is breaking
There's a boy who seeks
And his mind is ripe just for the taking
[Channel]
They learn what they can
From whatever's at hand
With the promise of a much better way
But when life doesn't change, and the struggles remain
Still God is there to work through the pain
If they could only feel His warm embrace
[Chorus]
[Channel]
And time after time
We put it all on the line
For the promise of a much better way
But when life doesn't change, and the struggles remain
Still God is there to work through the pain
If we can feel His warm embrace
[Repeat]
