Some folks always get the rough ridenSeem they end up on the wrong sidenConstant battle just to survive on any given daynnWatched a mother on my TVnHungry children that she can't feednStill I've got everything that I neednAnd that just don't seem rightnThat I sleep safe tonightnn[Chorus]nThere's gotta be some rhyme or reason whynWe turn away and we close our eyesnWish I could find some way that we could justify all of this sufferingnThere but for the grace of God go InnEveryday it makes the headlinesnSomeone struggling for their livesnFeels like I'm watching from the sidelinesnWhen nothing ever changednJust the truth got rearrangednn[Chorus]nnSometimes it's hard to believenIn a truth that we can't even seenBut faith holds the hope for the worldnAnd I know, I knownn[Chorus]nnWhen I'm thinking it's a bad daynFeels like nothings going my waynI pass a wreck out on the freewaynAnd I pray that they survivednThere but for the grace of God go I.
