Something We’ll Survive

Something We’ll Survive
(Jacob R. McGowen)

[1st Verse]
Grief can be a cruel and brutal thing
It can strike you in one moment
Bring you to your knees in pain
Oh, it can give you madness and despair
Oh, it can leave you feeling hopeless
Fighting just to breathe for air

[Chorus]
But grief, it is a natural part of life
Oh, it is something we must face
But it is something we’ll survive
Oh, grief it is a natural part of life
And it is something we must face
But it is something we’ll survive

[2nd Verse]
It can lead you to look back on days of old
On the loved ones that you cherished
And all the times that you felt whole
Oh, it can bring you tears and make you smile
It can help you to remember
You’ll see those loved ones afterwhile

[2nd Chorus]
And grief, it is a natural part of life
Oh, it is something we’ll endure
But it is something we’ll survive
Oh, grief it is a natural part of life
And it is something we’ll endure
But it is something we’ll survive

[Bridge]
It will teach you things you’d never
Ever learn another way
Oh, it can help you to find comfort
And joy within the simple things
And it can show you Who to turn to
Help you walk through storms and rain
It can help you help others through grief
As long as you do believe that…

[Outro]
That grief, it is a natural part of life
That we can make it past the darkness
If we hope and trust in Christ
That grief, it is a natural part of life
That we can rest within the madness
If we hope and trust in Christ
