Sometimes your life can be sidetracked
Getting lost in things you don't need
But we all lose direction
In a world of greed

People's lives end in ruin
Some people's lives never start
Someone knows what you're doing
Deep in your heart

In the hour of need you stood ready
Looked danger right in the face
Your heart is moved by the spirit
When you're living, living in a state of grace

There's a world never ending
Sorrow and pain don't exist
We can live there together
You can't resist

'Cause when you think you can't take it
Dreams disappear into space
Trust in your heart, you can make it
When you're living, living in a state of grace

Nothing worse than sorrow
Of loved ones you have lost
You can't face tomorrow
You can't bear the cross

Just remember that darkness
In this world has no place
You've got so much to give now
You're living

In the hour of need you stood ready
Looked danger right in the face
Your heart is moved by the spirit
When you're living, living in a state of grace

In the hour of need you stood ready
Looked danger right in the face
Your heart is moved [Incomprehensible] spirit
When you're living, living in a state of grace

Living, state of grace
Oh, oh, state of grace
Baby, when you are living
[Incomprehensible]

Hey, hey, living
Living, living, oh, oh, yeah, oh
[Incomprehensible], hey
Living in a state of grace
