Crashing

I'll never forget that morning when I heard you were gone
A tear ran down my cheek. You had been my friend for so long.
And I wish I could have known how you really felt,
And I wish I would have heard your desperate cry for help.

The world is crashing, so where do you stand?
Are you living strong on the rock, or are you sinking in the sand?
When hope is dying and all seems lost,
Do you run away from your fears or do you cling to the cross?

It's never as bad as it seems.
You don't realize what you mean.
Your life is a light,
So hold on tight..
And you'll shine....

Even when the world is crashing,and you're not sure where you stand.
You want to live on the rock but you're still sinking in the sand.
And though your hope is dying and all seems lost..
You can't run away from your fears, you've got to cling,
Cling to the cross.
