 INTRO
Lost,  everything is lost,  and everything I've loved  before  is gone
Alone  like the coming of the frost,  and a cold winter's  chill  in my stony  heart
And  where were You when all  that I've hoped  for,
C
Where were You when all that I've dreamed,
------------
 Came crashing down in shambles around me?
 You were on the cross
Pain,  could you take away the pain?
 If I find someone to blame,  would it make my life  seem easier?
All  alone, all my friends are asleep
 And I can't find  anyone to stay awake  with me
Where  were You when sin  stole my innocence?
C
Where were You when I was ashamed?
------------
 Hiding in a life I wish I never made
You  were on the cross, My  God, my God,  alone,  alone
You  were on the cross, You  died for  us, alone,  alone
You  were on the cross, Victorious,  alone,  alone
 TAG
You  were there in all  of my suffering
C
And You were there in doubt and in fear
------------
 I'm waiting on the dawn to reappear
