Take our sorrows, take our tears
Heaven's not so far from here
Though we struggle, hear us pray
There will be a better day
Show us mercy, give us rest
Hold the weary to Your breast
And for the child who lost his way
There will be a better day
Alleluia, Alleluia
There will be a better day
Sweet forgiveness, shining light
Lift the darkness of the night
Help us find the strength to say
There will be a better day
Alleluia, Alleluia
There will be a better day
There will be a better day
