This Day Will Pass

You've given all you have to give
You feel there's nothing left to live for
But life will never go your way
Yes, things look very bleak to you today
I hate to ruin all your fun
But you know you're not the only one
Who's ever felt this way before, no
Who's been stranded on that island before

Even now there's a voice that's calling
From way down deep inside
And it's belting a truth you cannot hide
Be still and know this day will pass
Every moment better than the last
I understand your pain will be
But a faded memory
And you'll wonder why
It ever felt so bad

I know you're wondering how I find
That I should know your state of mind
I can see the island clearly from the shore
Because iv'e been there
A thousand times and back before

That's how I know there's a voice that's calling
From way down deep inside
And it's shouting a truth you cannot deny
Be still and know this day will pass
Every moment better than the last
No matter your chagrin
Your ship returns again
You'll be wiser having sailed it back to shore
Yes, you'll be wiser than you've ever been before

Be still and know this day will pass
Every moment better than the last
I understand your pain will be
But a faded memory
And you'll wonder why
It ever felt so bad
