I was trying to hold it all on my own
Family only show up when the casket's closed
We used to laugh, we used to dance
Vacations in Rome

Now the love we had feels like it's all gone
I miss the smiles, I miss the unity
Now it's silence where the joy used to be
Lord, I'm praying you can heal this pain

Break the curse
So love can live again
Money fades
But your love remains

When the gates swing wide
We can't take a thing
What happened to the laughter?
What happened to the trust?

God, bring us back to the days of love
We need to pray together, stay together
Not wait until someone's gone forever
Lord, heal our family, set us free

This is my testimony
Generations broken by anger and pride
Tears unspoken, hearts locked inside
Fighting over money, forgetting what's true

None of that can follow when we come to you
I miss the family gathered 'round the table
The love was strong, unshakable
But now the distance cuts deep like a knife

God, we need you to restore this life
Money fades
But your love remains
When the gates swing wide

We can't take a thing
What happened to the laughter?
What happened to the trust?
God, bring us back to the days of love

We need to pray together, stay together
Not wait until someone's gone forever
Lord, heal our family, set us free
This is my testimony

Oh lord, remind us what it means to care
To show each other love before we're not there
Why wait for flowers laid on the ground
When we can give each other love today?

Money fades
But your love remains
When the gates swing wide
We can't take a thing

What happened to the laughter?
What happened to the trust?
God, bring us back to the days of love
We need to pray together, stay together

Not wait until someone's gone forever
Lord, heal our family, set us free
This is my testimony
Lord, heal our family

Bring back the love
We can't take nothing when you call us above
Teach us to cherish, teach us to see
This is my story

My testimony
