Do you wonder why you have to feel the things that hurt you?
 If there's a God who loves you where is He now?
 Or maybe there are things you can't see
 And all those things are happening to bring a better ending
 Someday, somehow you'll see, you'll see

 Would you dare, would you dare to believe
 That you still have a reason to sing?
 'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
 It [bad word] to the joy [bad word] 
 So hold on, you gotta wait for the light
 Press on and just fight the good fight
 'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
 It's just the dark before the morning

 My friend, you know how this all ends
 And you know where you're going
 You just don't know how you'll get there so say a prayer

 And hold on 'cause there's good for those who love God
 But life is not a snapshot, it might take a little time
 But you'll see the bigger picture

 Would you dare, would you dare to believe
 That you still have a reason to sing?
 'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
 It [bad word] to the joy [bad word] 
 So hold on, you gotta wait for the light
 Press on and just fight the good fight
 'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
 It's just the dark before the morning

 Yeah, yeah, before the morning
 Yeah, yeah

 Once you feel the weight of glory
 All your pain will fade to memory
 Once you feel the weight of glory
 All your pain will fade to memory, memory, memory, yeah

 Would you dare, would you dare to believe
 That you still got a reason to sing?
 'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
 It [bad word] to the joy [bad word] 
 Would you dare, would you dare to believe
 That you still got a reason to sing?
 'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
 It [bad word] to the joy [bad word]  [bad word] on, you gotta wait for the light
 Press on and just fight the good fight
 'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
 It's just the hurt before the healing
 Oh, the pain that you've been feeling
 It's just the dark before the morning

 Yeah, yeah, before the morning
 Yeah, yeah, before the morning
