Though we suffer for a time And not everything works out fine Nothing compares to what is waiting For those, with hope, anticipating
A time of peace and comfort
Not everything is healed Nor all wounds erased But His Glory will be revealed And sadness will be replaced
And we shall know His comfort
Sometimes all we have is comfort Sometimes a point we make peace A strength in the shadow of the cross To comfort one who knows of loss
In whom we find our comfort
Maybe a hand to hold or a shoulder to cry on Maybe a cheerful smile or a listening ear Maybe just to know someone will be there To know, beyond a doubt, someone does care
Maybe this is the greatest comfort
Jesus never said there would be no pain No sorrow, no loss, no sadness But he also said he would never leave us And, one day, turn our mourning into gladness
So, for now hold on to hope And pray for peace and comfort
