When Life Hits Hard Lyrics - Ricky Skaggs

Life is a mountain of a journey 

With rivers to cross at every turn 

It's always something or too much of nothing 

But if there's one thing I've learned 

When life hits hard you gotta hit a little harder bear that heavy load 

It's all gonna get a lot better farther along the road 

Lord knows when you're down so down you gotta dig a little deeper 

Keep reaching for the sky 

And when life hits hard there's bound to be a reason why 

Everyone's searching for the answer 

When maybe this only thing to do 

Is cherish the good times and hold on through the bad times 

Trustin' that time will deliver you 

And when life hits hard 

In this one way we're all alike 

We share a strong will to survive
