In the opening lines of “In the End” the spirited but poignant unplugged track that wraps her latest Curb Records album Hurricane, Natalie Grant puts it as plainly as she ever has in dealing with the troubling storms we all face: “Can’t catch a break/You’ve had your fill of old clichés…”.
Emerging from a dark, spiritually challenging time in her own life, the multi-talented singer/songwriter—a Grammy nominated, five time GMA (Gospel Music Association) Dove Award winner for Female Vocalist of the Year – breaks through the well worn and cheerful, but not completely truthful, phrases that often leave those who are struggling in need of more in the end.
In The End Lyrics
Can’t catch a break
You’ve had your fill of old cliches
Like ‘life is hard, but God is good’.
But even though it’s true
It won’t stop what you’re goin’ through
I wish that I could say it would.
That he’s outside of what you feel
It might not make sense
But one day it will.
There’s comin’ a day the sun will always shine
He’s gonna wipe away every tear from your eyes.
Hold on, my brother
Things are gonna get better
You’re gonna smile again
‘Cause we win in the end
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
You’re standing still
Life has handed you a bitter pill
Once again you’re on your face
You’ve got questions
Plenty of secret confessions
Wonderin’ if you’ve run out of grace
But he’s outside of what you feel
This life is just a moment
But our forever is sealed
Oh yeah
There’s comin’ a day the sun will always shine
He’s gonna wipe away every tear from your eyes.
Hold on, my brother
Things are gonna get better
You’re gonna smile again
‘Cause we win in the end
It won’t be about
Streets of Gold, Pearly Gates
Harps or wings, Diamond Lakes
All I know is that He’s gonna hold you, hold me
Heartache will disappear
Questions will become clear
Life will all make sense
In the end
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
We win in the end
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh yeah
There’s comin a day the sun will always shine
He’s gonna wipe away every tear from your eyes
Hold on my brother
Things are gonna get better
You’re gonna smile again
Cos we win in the end
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
We win in the end
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh – oh – oh – oh – oh – oh
Oh yeah
Glorly Glory Hallelujah
Glorly Glory Hallelujah
Glorly Glory Hallelujah
We win in the end
Oh yeah
Glorly Glory Hallelujah
Glorly Glory Hallelujah
Glorly Glory Hallelujah
We win in the end
We win in the end
