Beautiful Life Lyrics

I have hope when I wake up

I'm crying by the night

Something 'bout the light

Being drained from the sky

Yet the darkest night yields to

The loveliest sunrise

And both joy and sorrow make this a beautiful life

Like yesterday I remember

When he left this Earth

The tears on my sweater

The stained glass lining the church

He smiled through the rain

Laid himself down for his wife

Through my sorrow it's clear

That his joy hasn't died

And his new home's even better than

This beautiful life

Everybody sits in the shower

From time to time

Regret like a broken record

Plays in the back of a wistful mind

But a spoonful of sugar

Helps the medicine go down

Ever feel a little lost

On the road to being found?

It's in choosing to stay standing

Through the trials & the strife

Cause joy and sorrow make this a beautiful life

No season lasts forever

The sun will set & it'll rise

Like a puddle in the desert

The teardrops always dry

Though it's all they could ask for

Mom & Dad are sad to see their child grown

That they find the yellow brick road

Is all a parent wants to know

Bitter & sweet, they always teach

We're blessed to be alive

And both joy and sorrow make this a beautiful life

Oh how I love

This beautiful life
