God lives within you
There are stars within the night
God lives within you
There are stars within the night
For the light to reach you,
there is a time for that too.
Like links in a chain,
we are all connected to one another.
Once your worries fade away,
today and forever will be good.
Once your worries fade away,
today and forever will be good.
God lives within you
There are stars within the night
God lives within you
There are stars within the night
Only unwavering determination
can flatten mountains as you take a step forward.
Chorus: As you take a step forward.
Female: Only good deeds
will endure forever like the truth.
Chorus: Will endure forever.
Hold on with devotion in your hands,
and the reflection of the sun will shine.
If you embrace it with heartfelt love,
bells will chime inside your heart.
If you realize your mistake,
it is not a mistake anymore.
When you offer forgiveness,
your heart will love who you are.
Everything on this earth
will one day return to dust.
Come together in love,
and your life will last a hundred years.
God lives within you.
