Then you'll see what I've been tryin' to show you all these years
(X, dry your eyes)
And we both know the hood is rough
And that way when I speak, they know I'm here to teach
But deep inside, I've got somethin' that's workin' against
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
Everything I know is right, what I know makes sense
Be careful of the ones that always wanna get you high
Sincerely, from the bottom of my heart, I'm grateful
Behavin' myself, You told me what to do and I do it
I will, my Lord, with my heart and my soul
And there will be a time when you shine as bright as the stars
But I know what I gotta do
Yeah, He's by your side, right by your side
If you want me to help, what do you want for yourself?
Losin' friends, day by day
Between good and evil, be careful of those who wanna be you
That's gonna be how I roll, from now until I'm old
That's when you must fight harder than you've ever fought before
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
Lead and I'll follow, You take away the sorrow
You gave us power in our words, so I think before I speak
He's by your side, right by your side
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
See, I guess I really never knew, how proud I made You
I'm in so much pain when I'm here, Lord, please, take me away
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
Said you're alright with Him, I wonder
I'm callin' out to You Lord, because I need Your help
I put you here to do a job and your work ain't done
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
'Cause what you've got goin' on inside you is a war
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
But instead, take what's in my heart and put it in my head
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
My Lord, my savior, don't judge my behavior
Can't tell em nothin' wrong, 'cause I love 'em too much
But there won't be a his or hers, just ours
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
(It'll be alright)
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
You keep givin' me the word and I'll put it to song
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
I don't know if I'll do good enough
X, dry your eyes 'cause it's gonna be alright
My life is Yours, my soul I gave You
But every and now and then gets a little harder to go through it
(He's by your side)
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
I want You to know, Lord that for what You've given me I'm thankful
To live is to suffer but you're still my son
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
X, dry your eyes 'cause it'll be alright
(Right by your side)
Became ashamed so I hid that but ain't no longer with that
Do the right thing 'cause after the tears, come the cheers
Listen to me, I'm here but I can only help you
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
You're gonna make it through the night to the light with Him
I'ma sleep on what You said and holla back tomorrow
I was that kid that, been there, did that
They smile but are not really happy when they see you
This is the start of somethin' strong and this is just the start of it
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
Sometimes I don't know what to do
With the Lord behind us, there ain't nothin' that we can't do
'Cause when the time comes that one'll let you die
Praises to You my Lord, for lettin' me be a part of it
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
Use me as an example, if I can do it then they can too
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
I reach a lot of people and Lord, I'm lovin' the touch
I know you never seen Him but don't fight with Him
See, once again I'm havin' difficulty savin' myself
God loves you, yes, He does
Talk to me, I'll talk to them and we can't go wrong
You're alright with Him, said you're alright with Him
