When the work seems too hard, 
and the harvest too slow; 
When the vision gets marred, 
and the fire burns low, 
I think of You. 

When the night seems too long, 
and the light seems too dim; 
When the heart has no song, 
and the spirit no hymn, 
I think of You. 

You are the reason I survive 
Through each season of my life. 
When Im confused inside my mind, 
I think of You, and perfect peace I find. 

When my body is tired, and my soul [bad word] down; 
When I should be inspired, but Im wearing a frown, 
I think of You. 

When the world seems unfair, 
and the wind is too cold; 
When theres no change to spare, 
and my dreams have grown old, 
I think of You. 

You are the reason I survive 
Through each season of my life. 
When Im confused inside my mind, 
I think of You, and perfect peace I аind. 

When the aggressor wins, and the humble man cries; 
When the arrogant grins, and the underdog dies, 
I think of You. 

If I should look down 
at the horrible shadows 
of emptiness, 
I would be doomed to 
a life of defeat in my loneliness. 

So I think of You, 
and the wonders You do. 
The thought of You 
turns gray skies to blue. 
When life gets intense, 
and nothing makes sense, 
the tempest relents 
when I think of You. 

You are the reason I survive 
Through each season of my life. 
When Im confused inside my mind, 
I think of You, and perfect peace I find. 

You are the reason I survive 
Through each season of my life.
