Baby, when I met you there was peace unknown. I set out to get you with a fine tooth comb. I was soft inside. There was something going on. . You do something to me that I can't explain.
In Christ alone my hope is found. He is my light, my strength, my song. This Cornerstone, this solid ground. Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
I started a joke which started the whole world crying. But I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no. I started to cry which started the whole world laughing.
Well, the preacher turned to me and he smiled. He said, Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile. Now, for once in your life, you're alone. And you ain't got a dime, there's no time for the phone.
I started a joke. Which started the whole world crying. Oh but I didn't see. That the joke was on me, oh no. . And I started to cry. Which started the whole world laughing.
Don't know why I'm surviving every lonely day. When there's got to me no chance for me. My life would end. And it doesn't matter how I cry. My tears of love are a waste of time.
