When truth lies below
When hammer misses stone
When seed lays scattered on unbroken soil
And guilt cannot atone
When shadow draws the drapes
When famine drenches rain
When fires from heaven defy natural rule
A song to believe in remains
And a cross for all to bear
We relinquish our name
There's a cross for all to bear
And we seek in the depths of oceans wide
To believe...there's a cross that all must bear
When forest green is bare
When pity breeds despair
When funeral procession takes all from the grave
