Violin swelling, soft piano enters)
Female Lead (soft):
Mmm… yeah…
I know somebody out there tired tonight…
You been praying… you been crying…
But I hear the Lord saying…
Choir (soft humming):
Mmmmm… mmmmm…
Female Lead:
Don’t… give… up…
Verse 1
Late nights, tears falling on my pillow
Asking God how much more can I go
Every door seemed like it closed in my face
But somehow I still found grace
People said I wouldn't make it through
But they didn't know the God I knew
When I felt like letting go
Ad-lib: (Hold me Lord…)
You kept holding my soul
Pre-Chorus
When my faith felt weak
And my heart couldn't see
Choir:
God was working… working…
Even in the dark
Ad-lib: (Yes You were…)
You whispered to my soul…
Chorus (Big / Catchy)
Female Lead:
Don't give up now — you're closer than you know
Choir:
Hold on! Hold on!
Female Lead:
Every tear you cried, heaven saw it all
Choir:
We saw you praying!
Female Lead:
Better days are coming
Ad-lib: (I feel it!)
I can feel it in my soul
Choir:
Better days!
Female Lead:
What the enemy meant for evil
Choir:
God turning it for good!
All:
Better days!
Better days!
Better days are coming!
Verse 2
I almost lost my mind in the struggle
Almost let the pain take control
But every time the storm tried to break me
Ad-lib: (You lifted me…)
You reminded my soul
That my story ain't over yet
My blessing ain't here yet
But I feel something shifting
Ad-lib: (Right now!)
Choir Build
Choir:
Weeping may endure for a night
Female Lead: (Sing it!)

But joy comes in the morning light!
Female Ad-libs:
Morning is coming!
Morning is coming!
Bridge (Church Moment)
(Music drops to organ + choir stomp)

If you been crying all week… lift your hands tonight!
Choir:

If you been fighting battles nobody sees!
Choir:
You're gonna make it!
Female Lead:
The storm won't last forever!
Choir:
You're gonna make it!
Female Ad-libs:
I feel breakthrough in the room!
I feel healing in the room!
Somebody shout!
Final Chorus (Explosion)
Better days!
Better days!
Choir:
Better days are coming!
Don't give up!
Don't give up!
Choir:
Your blessing is coming!
Female Lead:
Ohhhh I feel it in my spirit!
Everything you've been praying for

Is already on the way!
All:
Better days!
Better days!
Better days are coming!
