Where's the hand that guided me   my cry within me is let me be   crossing the endless seas of pain   fighting against torrential rain   it seems pain is the experience in life   I'm sorely   tried by affliction in my life   I have to master this impossible situation   this driving force is my salvation      The world in my arms - I'm alive   Love is gain, pain is strife   In my world - I'm alive   and I can't see danger - anymore      This driving force sets me in strife   that driving force that's in my life   Whatever the pain is - I must survive   determination keeps me alive   this extreme situation makes me realize - I'm alive   it makes me realize it changed my life   Hope is the hand that guided me   secured by the hand that set me free.
