I need to know it’s getting better
A little light so I can see
Say the words so I remember
Say it loud so I believe
I need a little bit of hope for the hell in my head
To get me through the storm, ‘cause it ain’t done yet
I need it more than ever
I need to know it’s not forever
It’s gotta get better

Who's gonna hold me
When the ground begins to shake?
Who will console me
When my heart, it wants to break?
Who’s gonna sing the night to sleep?
Who’s gonna come and bring me peace?
Who’s gonna speak it over me
Over me?

I need to know it’s getting better
A little light so I can see
Say the words so I remember
And say it loud so I believe
I need a little bit of hope for the hell in my head
To get me through the storm, ‘cause it ain’t done yet
I need it more than ever
I need to know it’s not forever
It’s gotta get better

How do we pray, then
When the silence is so loud?
How do we rest when
Our dreams are filled with doubt?
Dance when the sky is dark as war
When the river’s at the door
Love never let us down before

I need to know it’s getting better (Ah-ah)
A little light so I can see
Say the words so I remember
And say it loud so I believe
I need a little bit of hope for the hell in my head
To get me through the storm, ‘cause it ain’t done yet
I need it more than ever
I need to know it’s not forever
It’s gotta get better

I need to know it’s getting better
A little light so I can see
And say the words so I remember
And say it loud so I believe
I need a little bit of hope for the hell in my head
To get me through the storm, ‘cause it ain’t done yet
I need it more than ever
I need to know it’s not forever
It’s gotta get better
