Devine Answer



When your life has taken a dive
And it feels like there's a knife
Stock in the center of your core
Ripping and the more
You're feeling the pain
You're going insane
Craving for a solution
To this delusion
Praying for a way out
Hoping to get out
Just ask Christ the questions
He's got the solutions

When you find yourself in a place so lonely
Seeking a new direction but it only
Seems like the more you try
The more you cry
And the tears keeps coming
You’ve tried it all but it just keeps flowing
Searching for a way out
Hoping to get out
Just ask Christ the questions
He’s got the solutions

When it feels like the whole world's caving in
You started well but just couldn’t win
You pressed onwards
But proceeded downwards
Once again you tried
Once more you cried
And you’re on the horns of a dilemma
A terrifying enigma
Praying for a way out
Hoping to get out
Just ask Christ the questions
He’s got the solutions
