We’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

We were in a dark place

Adversity we had to face

We looked for a hand to hold

Our story needed to be told

We traveled far

And we counted every scar

We’ve been shamed

We’ve been defamed

We’ve been filled with doubt

Didn’t know how to work things out

Life has been unfair

We had no one to care

We thought we were alone

Without a steppingstone

Didn’t think we’d last

Due to our difficult past

We didn’t know where to start

Had to look into the heart

We needed a lift

We needed a gift

To get us through

Despite what we do

We were stressed

We’ve gone from broken to blessed
