That's the Way of the World Songtext
von Gary Valenciano

Everyday is the same, that′s the way of the world
Same sorrow and pain, that's the way of the world (yeah)
We laugh and we cry, that′s the way of the world
We are low and then we get high, that's the way of the world (yeah)

And then we look, and we search, and we seek
To put the pieces of the puzzle together, doing our best to keep it all together
Going 'bout our business, seldom thinking of one another
Hey, that′s not the only way, that′s the way of the world

Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
(That's the way of the world)
(That′s the way of the world)

Has there ever been a time, when in your mind
You just felt like giving up, wanting to surrender?
You've been tryin′ to find your way
Hopin' that tomorrow would be better, much better than today


(You will find) you will find peace of mind (ooh)
If you look in the right place, you will find your way back home
If you look in the right place, you won′t be lost out in the storm
There is a way (there is a way), the only way
It will see you through today and tomorrow
Just believe it in your heart (that's the way of the world)

Haven't you heard about it? (That′s the way of the world)
Haven′t you heard? Oh (that's the way of the world)
If you believe, and see with your heart, and then you will know
Oh, you will know it, you will know, you will know it, ooh, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Ooh

It′s the way of the world, you better believe it, son
They say it's the year 2000, judgment day will come
The grand finale, comin′ to take you over
It's the King Almighty, please forgive us from our sins

Bless us with all your heart and give me wisdom so I can preach
All your words to every man, woman, and child walkin′ on the streets
I ain't got no beef with all you wanna be ambitious, scheming minds
Read the Bible, I suggest, and you shall find

Who knows what may happen tomorrow?
Don't fear if you know who you follow
Takes away your tears and your sorrows (ooh)


Never will He leave you alone
In your heart is where He′ll make His home
Takes away your tears and your sorrows (yeah)
Who knows what tomorrow may bring (yeah)
Fear not if you follow the King (ooh)
He takes away your tears and your sorrows (oh, yeah)

Keeping it high, clapping my hands
Look in my eye, am I telling a lie? (Oh, yeah)
No, let′s keep it real

We've come together on this special day
To sing our message loud and clear, yeah
Looking back, we′ve touched on sorrowful days (oh)
Future (future) pass, they disappear (disappear)

(You will find) you will find peace of mind
If you look in the right place, you will find your way back home
If you look in the right place, you won't be lost out in the storm
There is a way (there is a way), the only way
It will see you through today and tomorrow
Just believe it in your heart, oh, yeah (that′s the way of the world)

Of the world, that's the way (that′s the way of the world)
Oh, yeah (that's the way of the world)
Baby, believe it, see with your heart (that's the way of the world)
Who knows what may happen tomorrow? Whoa (that′s the way of the world)
Don′t fear if you know who you follow, follow (that's the way of the world)

Who knows what tomorrow may bring? (That′s the way of the world)
Fear not if you follow the King, ooh, yeah, yeah (that's the way of the world)
He takes away your tears and your sorrows, oh, yeah
(That′s the way of the world) oh, oh, oh, whoa
(That's the way of the world) yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(That′s the way of the world) oh
