Only the Living lyrics
by Legacy Five
They're gathered round the bedside
With broken hearts and memories
And no one wants to say goodbye
Prayers are being whispered
As the moment's drawing nearer
And they're wishing for a little more time
But they know it will come
And when it's said and done
Only the living, regret the living
It's the only the ones left behind who cry
Only the living, no shadows of grieving
But thеre is joy on the other sidе
Ooh, it may feel like the sorrow
Will hang around forever
But weeping only lasts for a night
The God of all comfort
Who holds us while we're hurting
Will make everything alright
So, we trust and hope
That though we ache, we know
Only the living, regret the living
It's only the ones left behind who cry
Only the living, no shadows of grieving
But there is joy on the other side
When Jesus stands waiting
With arms open wide
And He wipes every tear from our eyes
Only the living, regret the living
It's only the ones left behind who cry
Only the living, no shadows of grieving
But there is joy
Yes, there's so much joy on the other side
