Verse 1: They say the world is full of pain, but that’s a lie they learned from shame. Most hearts beat strong, most days are bright, but eyes have lost their inner light. Chorus: The world still shines, if you just see, the joy that flows so silently. The scars are there, but so is grace, the gift of life, the time, the place. So let us learn what we forgot — how to be happy with what we've got. Verse 2: The soul’s been poisoned by the fear, by voices whispering dark and near. But most of life is love and breath, not endless sorrow, not just death. Chorus (2): The world still shines, if you just see, the joy that flows so silently. The scars are there, but so is grace, the gift of life, the time, the place. So let us learn what we forgot — how to be happy with what we've got. Bridge: Learn again the joy of day, the gift of walking in HaShem’s way. It’s not naive — it’s wise and true: there’s more to thank than to rue. Final Chorus (variation): The world still shines, can’t you feel it too? Through every breath, it’s calling you. The hurt is real, but so is grace, the beauty in this broken place. So take the light, and pass it on — that’s how the darkness will be gone. Outro (optional spoken or sung softly): The world still shines… just open your eyes. The light’s been here… the whole time.
