Waiting For a Brighter Day

There is hearsay of a brighter day And if it does come my way I hope it will stay
While the time whittles away There is no game to play Struggling with life's daily melee
All I can do is pray I wont be lead astray By the things that outweigh Like the debt of sin I must repay Only I can defray
With little time there can be no delay Gods word I must obey And his love I will never betray For then he will take away all this dismay
