Sometimes Lyrics - Karen Clark-sheard

CHORUS: Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all that you're going through everyday 

From being tempted to resented and you need direction 

Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all of the money spent that you make 

But the righteous won't be forsaken 

You just keep on pressin' 

VERSE: I might get personal so protect your toes 

Cause i feel i need to let my heel down 

For we do all that we can to 

Treat our NEIGHBOR right but 

Sometimes we wanna scream 

We try to turn the other cheek 

And stay on our knees and keep our tempers under control, but you know 

Every now and then you wanna tell somebody what they mean 

CHORUS: Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all that you're going through everyday 

From being tempted to resented and you need direction 

Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all of the money spent that you make 

But the righteous won't be forsaken 

You just keep on pressin' 

VERSE: Working that Job so hard from dusk to dawn 

To keep a decent roof overhead 

But your debt is evergrowing 

Even working over time 

And sometimes you wanna scream 

But God knows the pain is there and how much we can 

bear we didn't come this far to be left alone 

That's why we gotta be strong for the prayers of the righteous will availeth many things 

CHORUS: Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all that you're going through everyday 

From being tempted to resented and you need direction 

Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all of the money spent that you make 

But the righteous won't be forsaken 

You just keep on pressin' 

HOOK: For the trials that we see are here to make us stronger 

Grab onto his hand and live in fear no longer 

Like a tree planted by the rivers of water 

We shall not be moved 

Stand firm in your service 

Your eyes will be dried in the morning 

CHORUS: Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all that you're going through everyday 

From being tempted to resented and you need direction 

Sometimes heaven seems so far away 

With all of the money spent that you make 

But the righteous won't be forsaken 

You just keep on pressin'
