[Verse 1 — Male] You prayed for God to change it. You believed that He could move. You waited for an answer, For a sign of what to do. But the days kept moving slowly, And the burden still remained. You began to ask in silence, “Lord, do You hear me when I pray?” [Chorus — Male & Female] You will not be alone— Though the road may still be long. You will not be alone— Though the sorrow is not gone. He may not remove the burden Or reveal what lies beyond, But the Lord will walk beside you. You will not be alone. [Verse 2 — Female] Jesus knew the weight of sorrow. He knew anguish, grief, and pain. In the garden He prayed deeply, And the Cross still came His way. At the tomb He wept with others. On the Cross He cried aloud. Our Lord did not stand far from suffering— He entered into ours. [Chorus — Male & Female] You will not be alone— Though the road may still be long. You will not be alone— Though the sorrow is not gone. He may not remove the burden Or reveal what lies beyond, But the Lord will walk beside you. You will not be alone. You will not be alone. [Bridge — Male/Female alternating] [Male] Not every sorrow Leaves us quickly. [Female] Not every prayer Removes the pain. [Male] Not every wound Is healed tomorrow. [Female] Not every cross Is taken away. [Male] But silence Does not mean He left us. [Female] And suffering Does not mean He is gone. [Both] When we cannot understand Him, We can still Place our lives in His hands. [Instrumental] [Verse 3 — Male & Female] [Male] Perhaps the road will change tomorrow. [Female] Perhaps the burden will remain. [Male] Perhaps we'll understand the reason. [Female] Perhaps we never will. [Both] But faith is more than having answers, And hope is more than seeing dawn. We can trust the One who loves us Even when the night is long. [Final Chorus — Both] You will not be alone— Though the road may still be long. You will not be alone— Though the sorrow is not gone. When you have no more answers, When your own strength is gone, Christ will still remain beside you. You will not be alone. [Outro — Male/Female] [Male] Not because The cross is gone— [Female] Not because We understand— [Both] But because The Lord is with us. We are not Alone.
