In the darkness I lay weeping Feeling hopeless and alone No place to run No one to turn to On the edge of hanging on What faith I had was shaken I cried out in desperation From heaven down to earth Like a soft rain falling You came to me And bathed me in your love Into your arms Like a baby I came crawling You held me 'til I was strong enough I prayed a prayer And I was heard From heaven to earth In your light now I am standing Filled with hope And unafraid From your act of tender mercy Once again I found my way Just when I thought My world was ending You showed me A new beginning From heaven down to earth Like a soft rain falling You came to me And bathed me in your love Into your arms Like a baby I came crawling You held me 'til I was strong enough I prayed a prayer And I was heard From heaven to earth From heaven down to earth Like a soft rain falling You came to me And bathed me in your love Into your arms Like a baby I came crawling You held me 'til I was strong enough I prayed a prayer And I was heard From heaven to earth I prayed a prayer And I was heard From heaven to earth
