Lyrics
Hard times fall. And, they never seem to end.
Evil days - test the faith of men.
We all wonder at the stress we're under, will we get ahead?
I've never seen the just forsaken, or their children begging bread.
Chorus
We are getting by. We've got all we need.
We are getting by. We're alive and free.
We are getting by. There ain't no need to fret.
We are getting by. God ain't through with us yet.
2ND vrs
It's hard to watch - The wealth of evil men.
They seem untouched - by the pain of their sin.
My heart rests with holy treasure in unseen courts above.
I'll spend the rest of my days - livin' my life in love.
Chorus. Instr bridge. Chorus
