When Life Crumbles

When Life Crumbles

when your life crumbles
an you're all alone
you're standing naked to the bone
what would you do

when your life falls apart
and you’re standing on quicksand
what do you do

when everything you worked for
blows away in the wind
what would you do

are you strong enough within 
to get it together 
and start all over again

do you believe in you
like God wants you too

life can change on a flip of a dime
there are no guarantees in life
it's between you and human strife
nothing replaces a faith within
you must believe in you
that’s the only thing that will get you through
