Every step is getting brighter
As the golden stairs I climb
Every burden's getting lighter;
Every cloud is silver lined
There the sun is always Shining,
There no tear will dim the eye,
At the ending of the rainbow;
Where the mountains touch the sky.
Many things about tomorrow
I don't seem to understand.
But I know who holds tomorrow,
And I know who holds my hand.
