Everlasting Love

Everlasting Love - CeCe Winans

Where there is grief there will be hope

And if ever a hand is in need know

That I'll be holdin' on

Know that the peace that comes from above

Is the same everlasting love

Remember me whenever you're all alone

And if it helps you to sleep know

That I'll be looking on

Know that the peace that you dream of

Is the same everlasting love

You know I've watched you carry all this weight upon your shoulders

As if no one understands what you go through

But with all the might in you believe

What I say is true

When I say that I will never ever

Leave you or forsake you

So you just reach just reach out as far as you can

Should the whole world just stare in disbelief

Know that I'll take hold of your hand

What your heart feels is what you sing of

Is the same everlasting

Love everlasting love

Everlasting love

When the darkness filled the urgent sky

And the tears welled up

In the corners of my eyes

And the sun would shine for the pourin' rain

Wondered if I'd ever see daylight again

When the stars protest at the moon's refrain

And I told myself I'd surely go insane

And the Earth kept turnin' at an alarmin' pace

And I couldn't talk my heart out of joinin' the race

I remember a time I couldn't close my eyes

I would lie awake dispairin'

Don't know how many nights

Afraid of death that my chest

Would give way to the fear

Pulled the covers over my head

And I cupped my ears

In attempt to escape the deafening

Sounds of silence

In attempt to escape these constant

Visions of violence

And with death as close as

It could possibly get

Heard a voice in the distance sayin'

Cece not yet

Then suddenly the darkness

Gave away to the light

Threw off the covers

As I closed my eyes

Just in time to feel

Your spirit grip my body like a glove

And I knew in that moment that it was your

That it was your everlasting lasting love

And today

Forever more it will remain even now

It's still the same

'Cause my love will never change know

Yesterday

Yesterday and today and today

That comes from above

Comes from above

That comes from above

Is that same

Know that the peace

Comes from above

Is that same everlasting love
