You'll Be There
(George Straite)

Hope is an anchor, and love is a ship
Time is the Ocean and life is a trip
You don't know where you're going
Till you know where you're at
And if you can't read the stars
Well you better have a map
A compass and a conscience
so you don't get lost at sea
Around some lonely island, 
where no one wants to be

From the beginning of creation, 
I think our maker had a plan
For us to leave these shores 
and sail beyond the sand
And let the good light guide us 
to the waves and the wind
To the beaches in a world
where we have never been
And we'll climb up on a mountain, 
we'll let our voices ring
Those who've never tried it,
they'll be the first to sing

I'll see you on the other side
If I make it
And it might be a long hard ride
But I'm gonna take it
Sometimes it seems I don't have a prayer
Let the weather take me anywhere
But I know I wanna go
Where the streets are Gold 
Cause You'll Be There

You don't bring anything with you here
And you can't take anything back
I've never seen a hearse with a luggage rack
So I've torn my knees up praying
Scarred my back from falling down
Spent so much time flying high, 
till I'm face first in the ground
So if you're up there watching me, 
can you talk to God and say,
Tell him I might need a hand
to see you both someday

I'll see you on the other side
If I make it
And it might be a long hard ride
But I'm gonna take it
Sometimes it seems I don't have a prayer
Let the weather take me anywhere
But I know I wanna go
Where the streets are Gold 
Cause You'll Be There

It is not what happens to you that counts. It is how you react to what happens to you, especially when you have unexpected problems of any kind. Every day may not be good, but there's something good in every day.
