Annie Herring When We Hit The Ground
Everyone's looking for a treasure
Everyone thinks they'll wear a crown
Everyone dreams of wealth unmeasured
But when they hit the ground
And they fall into pieces
Who will be the ones who'll take their
Hands in their hands?
Take their loss in their gain?
Bear their cross with the pain that they have known?
Everyone's fallin' short in their eyes
Everyone feels sometimes alone
Everyone seeks their own direction
But when they hit the ground
And they fall into pieces
Who will take the ones who'll take their
Hands in their hands?
Take their loss in their gain?
Bear their cross with the pain that they have known?
Lord, here I am, O send me
As long as You're by my side
Lord, here I am, O send me
In Your name, ooh Your name, above all names
Name above every name
Name that is closer than a brother
Name that holds every star in place
Name that is hope for all who suffer
So when we hit the ground
And we fall into pieces
He will be the one who'll take our
Hands in His hand
Take our loss in His gain
Bear our cross when the pain that He has known
Name above all names
Name above every name
Name above all names
Name above every name
