Lyrics
What if God had said
That we were on our own
Left in a world we know
That hope could never grow

How lost and lonely we would be
Locked in a cell without a key

But we're not alone
The bible tells me so
It tells me so

What if God had left
Nothing to guide our way
Just a wordless script
To a pointless play

The lights would dim, the curtains raise
As fear and chaos take the stage

But we're not alone
As Jesus' love has shown
His love has shown...

We're not alone...

When the news
Leads with all that bleeds
The rising fear,
Falling economies
When victory
Surrenders to defeat
And our despair
Brings us to our knees

We cry out, cry out, cry out
To You, our Lord
We cry out, cry out, cry out
To the Living God
We cry out, cry out, cry out
To You, oh Lord
We turn our eyes, raise our hands, lift our prayers
To You, our King

What if God had said
That we were on our own
Left in a world we know
That hope could never grow

Thanks Feter! We based the arrangement loosely on Stairway To Heaven, actually. Glad you enjoyed it!

Amen, brother
We are not alone, never alone, if we belong to the Lord. This song is soaring and hopeful, even as you list what's going on in the world. This is wonderfully done, and thank you for the download. It lifts my spirit instantly and will whenever I hear it.
