Carrie Newcomer - One Great Cry Lyrics

A thousand cry out in wonder
A million pray â??God could you give us a sign?â??
"It's a heavy burden we're under
If you carry your, I'll carry mine"

How fine, how sweet the sound
When I lay these sorrows and this poor heart down
It was love that always saved me
Hope that always found me
I was blind but now I see
We are no more than a moment

We're forever and ever and that's a fact
In joy and hope and hunger
In words and deeds we can't take back
Where do we go from here
And what does it mean

Is there some perfect madness of faith
That believes in what can't be seen
So hold out your hands like altars

We are meant to be here
And we are meant to ask why
If only to rise and falter
If only to give out one great cry
