Hero cover
10. Afterwhile
Album: Hero
Artist: Kirk Franklin
         
 

Afterwhile, this too shall pass, Afterwhile
Scars will heal, you’ll love again
It won’t hurt you, Afterwhile
Stuck between if and when
You prayed, you tried, but still no end

God’s purpose soon you’ll understand
It won’t hurt you, Afterwhile [2x]

[repeat top]

So when the pain has come to end
And now your heart is whole again
Help someone who needs to know
That it won’t hurt, Afterwhile

(K. Franklin) © 2005 Zomba Songs/Kerrion Publishing (adm. by Zomba Songs)/Lilly Mack Music (BMI)
