From the recording everything, everything
Lyrics
Everything is gonna be alright, Everything, Everything
We were slaves in the land of the midnight moon
And we groped in the blackness of darkness at noon
We sang sad songs by the riverside
But he cried from the cross on the day he died, He said
Everything is gonna be alright, Everything, Everything
We were deaf and dumb and blind and lame
And since the start it is still the same
But he took my head in his hand
He said, see, my son, what I have planned, He said
Everything is gonna be alright, Everything, Everything
Just hold on, hold on
Hold on to my hand
You know me, you know who I am
Hold on to my hand
You may have struggle, you may have strife
But I'll be with you in the morning light
Just hold my hand, hold it tight
And I'll lift you up by my father's side
Everything is gonna be alright, Everything, Everything
