LYRICS
It’s three o’clock and school is out
He should be going home
But the anger he knows waits for him
Chills him to the bone
The words from all the times before
Echo in his mind
They’ve left him feeling so unloved
They make this young boy cry
He goes into his hiding place
And tries to get away
As he lifts his fist to heaven
It’s then he hears God says:

I’m still here
I’m still here
No you have not been abandoned
And though you can’t see through the tears
I’m still here

Another Sunday morning
She drives to church alone
While the man she loves
Is sleeping his life away at home
With one hand on the steering wheel
The other wipes her tears
She cries out for her husband
The same way she’s cried for years
She can hear him say, “You’re such a fool”
And it’s more than she can take
So she gives it to the Father
‘Cause she knows what he will say

Sometimes there are no easy answers
Yet My promise remains true
I may not take your trials away
But I’ll always take you through
