I believe in the sun even when it is not shining.

And I believe in love even when there’s no one there.

And I believe in God even when he is silent.

I believe through any trial, there is always a way.

But sometimes in this suffering and hopeless despair,

My heart cries for shelter to know someone’s there. 

But a voice rises within me saying, ‘hold on my child,’

I’ll give you strength, I’ll give you hope, just stay a little while.

I believe in the sun even when it is not shining.

And I believe in love even when there’s no one there.

And I believe in God even when he is silent.

I believe through any trial, there is always a way.

May there some day be sunshine.

May there some day be happiness.

May there some day be love.

May there some day be peace.
