After Dark

[Verse 1]
Dear friend, it will be alright
Please just stay right by my side
You might think the world is tumbling down but it's not
Sometimes it's hard to see through life
Through all of the pain and all the strife
You might think the world is tumbling down but it's not

[Chorus 1]
Because there is life after sadness
There is hope after madness
There is joy after a broken heart
And there's light after the dark, dark
There's light after dark, dark
There's light after dark

[Verse 2]
I know life looks so dim right now
Like everything up high is crashing down
You might feel alone but trust me that's far from the truth
Because there is One who will not leave
No matter what you've done or what you've seen
You might feel alone but trust me that's far from the truth

[Chorus 1]
Because there is life after sadness
There is hope after madness
There is joy after a broken heart
And there's light after the dark, dark
There's light after dark, dark

[Bridge]
Oh the Lord will never leave you
No-o, He will not forsake you
He is with you 'til the end of time
Oh the Lord will never leave you
No-o, He will not forsake you
He is with you 'til the end of time

[Chorus 2]
Because there is life after sadness
There is hope after madness
There is joy after a broken heart
There is life after sadness
There is hope after madness
There is joy after a broken heart
And there's light after the dark, dark
There's light after dark, dark
There's light after dark
