I Believe

From amidst the pain I can hear the cries of dying nations For a thousand years They've been calling out for sweet salvation Channel And time after time They've put it all on the line For the promise of a much better way But their eyes fill with tears as the joy turns to fear As they watch it all just drifting away If they could only hear me when I say Chorus I believe that His loving arms Are waiting to hold them forever I believe that His faithful heart Is calling them out of the cold In a dark, cold world There's a lonely girl whose heart is breaking There's a boy who seeks And his mind is ripe just for the taking Channel They learn what they can From whatever's at hand With the promise of a much better way But when life doesn't change, and the struggles remain Still God is there to work through the pain If they could only feel His warm embrace Repeat Chorus Channel And time after time We put it all on the line For the promise of a much better way But when life doesn't change, and the struggles remain Still God is there to work through the pain If we can feel His warm embrace Repeat --- I Believe - Fred Hammond
