Intro

Verse

I've seen it and felt it

Hopelessness with no lifeline

The wicked are feeding

On innocence and our decline

You and I we are the same

Torn apart by different things

All our faith is barely alive

But we're going to make it through the night

I want you to know

Chorus

When the world is on your back

And you think that you will never last

When you're lonely and you are confused

I'll be right beside you

When the walls are closing in

And you think you'd rather sink than swim

When you think there's nothing left for you to lose

I'll be right beside you

I'll be with you

Verse

We are precious

More than priceless is our worth

Loved by the Father

Heaven's children here on earth

You and I we are the same

Lifted up above the pain

By its wounds we have been healed

And in our love it is revealed

I want you to know (I need you to know)

Chorus

When the world is on your back

And you think that you will never last

When you're lonely and you are confused

I'll be right beside you

When the walls are closing in

And you think you'd rather sink than swim

When you think there's nothing left for you to lose

I'll be right beside you

Bridge

Hold on, don't you let go of me

I'll be here through it all

Hold on, when you're ready to fall

I will carry you

I will never leave you

I will lift you if you fall

Chorus

When the world is on your back

And you think that you will never last

When you're lonely and you are confused

I'll be right beside you

When the walls are closing in

And you think you'd rather sink than swim

When you think there's nothing left for you to lose

I'll be right beside you
