Prince — The Cross

[Verse 1] Black day, stormy night No love, no hope in sight Don't cry, He is coming Don't die without knowing the cross [Verse 2] Ghettos to the left of us Flowers to the right There'll be bread for all of us If we can just bear the cross [Verse 3] Sweet song of salvation A pregnant mother sings She lives in starvation Her children need all that she brings [Verse 4] We all have our problems Some big, some are small Soon all of our problems Will be taken by the cross [Verse 5] Black day, stormy night No love, no hope in sight Don't cry for He's coming Don't die without knowing the cross [Verse 6] Ghettos to the left of us Flowers to the right There'll be bread for all, y'all If we can just, just bear the cross, yeah [Verse 7] We all have our problems Some are big, some are small Soon all of our problems, y'all Will be taken by the cross [Outro] The cross The cross
