Antithesis Times Of Trial Lyrics

Times Of Trial Lyrics

When you wake up in the morning

Can you tell me what you see

A
gentle flowing river

Or a stormy troubled sea



In this life
you will find

Tests and trials and despair

If your faith is
strong

you'll know where to cast your cares



Hold your head
up high, not with pride or arrogance

Be glad to know you got another
chance



I know the pain that's in your life

Been down that
road before

Just when things were going right

Fate had a twist in
store



Two roads I must travel on

One life for another
death

One voice whispered in my ear

Don't you give up just yet



On a trail of tears, I have to face my fears

Unlike the other
one, left life with his own gun



Just what went through his mind

That peace he'll never find

How do I carry on, now that my brother is
gone?



My life flashed before my eyes

When I was
twenty-five

When I thought this could be the end

I fought to stay
alive



I was indestructible

I lived an ideal life

But
things change for better or for worse

Each life a gift divine



From the lessons learned and the bridges I have burned

I have found
but one true friend

Who will stand by me through times of complexity

And help me through the times of trial



When I look in a mirror
I can tell you who I see

A man with new beginnings

Living out his
destiny



I am here with you in spirit

I will never leave your
side

I'll be right here if you need me

Take my hand and walk with
me



All the while these are times of trial

Carry onward
through the darkest miles
