When we embark
Into the distress
When it's dark
Don't curse the darkness
Just light a candle
In the midst of it
We want out but
We're still stuck in
Hanging on but
The thread is so thin
We're gunna get out
Of this empty pit
Wait for it
Patience, love
Will keep the lamp lit
Just a bit
Hold on remember
Hope is infinite
We're gunna make it
Through night
Wait for it
We'll keep the lamp lit
In troubled it's hard to see
How we can stand up in this debris
Steady in the face of strong adversity
Seven times we've fallen down
Eight times we get up off the ground
Failure is not the falling
But it's the staying down
Wait for it
Patience, love
Will keep the lamp lit
Just a bit
Hold on remember
Hope is infinite
We're gunna make it
Through night
Wait for it
We'll keep the lamp lit
Lights are on the way
Bright lights are on the way
Until then we're gunna stay
Lights are on the way
Wait for it
Patience, love
Will keep the lamp lit
Just a bit
Hold on remember
Hope is infinite
We're gunna make it
Through night
Wait for it
We'll keep the lamp lit
Lights are on the way
Bright lights are on the way
Until then we're gunna stay
Lights are on the way
