Gonna Get Better
08-30-05
for the survivors of Hurricane Katrina

It’s gonna get better hold on
Just take my hand
It’s gonna get better
I’m here to do whatever I can

So easy to say / What the storm has washed away
But it’s hard to tell / How to live when all has failed
When winds were through / The only life you knew
Was not anymore
So easy to quit / And give in and lose your grip
But it’s hard to stop / Thinking there’s no chance you’ve got
Through all your stain / And sound of all your pain
Can’t you hear the Lord

It’s gonna get better hold on
Just take my hand
It’s gonna get better
I’m here to do whatever I can

So easy to find / What we could say is a sign
But it’s hard to seek / Any peace when you are week
Before your eyes / your world was pushed aside
And then torn apart
So easy to look / At the things suddenly took
But it’s hard to see / What the future just might be
Through all your stain / And sound of all your pain
You need to listen to God

It’s gonna get better hold on
Just take my hand
It’s gonna get better
I’m here to do whatever I can
