To the One Who Weeps Now

To the one who weeps now, to the one who endures,
To the one who keeps silent, because no one would hear,
To the one who is poor, to the one who is sad,
Know that one day you’ll laugh for you shall be glad.

To the one who hurts now, to the one who feels empty
To the one who has nothing but the clothes on his back,
To the one who craves for all that you’ve lost,
Know that one day there’ll be nothing more you shall lack.

To the one who suffers because justice is blind,
To the one cast away just because she is kind,
To the one who is chained, to the one left behind
Know that one day you’d have what on earth you can’t find.

There is more to this life than what our eyes can see,
There is more to the future in store for you and for me,
Righteousness and peace shall kiss, mercy and truth shall meet,
And for all who lived in love, their joy shall be complete!
