lyrics

I can see this dark cloud approaching
Vision is blurring, voices are failing
I reach for your hand and find it there
Pull through this black to see the light

We will stick together through thick and then
And we will stick together til the very end

There were so many things that I've been through
and at times you were the only one there for me
I've cried out to the heights
I've cried out to the depths
And still my voice can barely be heard

It's like a sinking ship
And I'm the only left

Chorus:
You will see me through (This is all I have to give)
You arms are open, my heart is broken
My defenses are all down (To receive this beautiful gift)

I'm growing weary from them
And I'm breaking down
I feel like such a failure
I'm growing weary from them
And I'm breaking down
They use me and throw me out

If pain is just weakness leaving the body
Then I must be the strongest man alive

So God show me the strength I have in you
Show me that I can make it through

I can make it
I am strengthened

(solo)

Chorus:
You will see me through (This is all I have to give)
You arms are open, my heart is broken
My defenses are all down (To receive this beautiful gift)

Is all this worth fighting for
(I will lay my heart out, will we be united as one)
I cross my heart and hope that you would keep these truths
(I offer all I have, will we share the same blood)
We were always meant to keep our word

Will we be united as one
Will we share the same blood
