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