How can we sing when we're in a strange land?

How can we face adversity?

Oh-oh, how can we stand in the midst of trouble

When the enemy laughs at our beliefs?

Situations in life seem so distressing

Like a prisoner in chains, there's no escape (There's no way out)

And you wonder if life will ever get better

Or does trouble live within your fate

Won't you take some time

To realize

That you're on

The winning side

(We know this life may not be easy)

But when you're all alone

In your weakness, He's strong

So let your song ring out, let your voice sing it loud

If you know that Christ is singing in you

(Then the song that you sing will never end)

If you're asking how can we sing when we're in a strange land?

How can we face adversity?

Oh-oh, how can we stand in the midst of trouble

When the enemy laughs at our beliefs?

Won't you take some time

To realize

You're His own

That's why He died

(I know this life may not be easy)

But when you're all alone

In your weakness, He's strong

So let your song ring out, lift your voice and shout it loud, yeah

He put joy down in your soul, now this sin-sick world must know that He lives, He lives

(Inside you, oh, He's there)

(To guide you when your)

When your back's against the wall (Keep on singing, keep on)

When you have no friends at all (Keep on singing)

When you're down and can't see your way

He'll be there to bring you brighter days (Keep on singing)

If you know that Jesus is singing in you

(Then the song that you sing will never end)
