Praise the Lord, when it's all gone wrong Everything fades but our love shines on Praise the Lord, when your hope is gone Everything fades but our love shines on Like waves on the ocean singing old songs Like waves on the ocean breaking beyond So faint the impatient can't hear The sound of the one without years The culmination of every child's tears Form a tide breaking on the eternal lands Time stands still In the moment when we are healed I questioned if this was real But then I opened up my heart and I could feel The feather of a bird in the wind Fire in the brush if we only Speak when we must A hush of heart will become a good treasure Kept in a place without systems of measure But as real as an undying love We will discern what comes from above Compared to that which could never be sustained The season of rain will bring labor pain But its end will be the most wonderful Joy, Oh Lord Praise the Lord when it's all gone wrong Everything fades but our love shines on Praise the Lord when your hope is gone Everything fades but our love shines on Like waves on the ocean singing old songs Like waves on the ocean breaking beyond
