These Things
c. 2010 Glen King

1. 
Day follows night
Sun follows rain
Spring follows winter
And earth is born again
These Things
Don't just happen
These Things
Can be explained:

2.
Life follows death
Peace follows war
Joy follows sorrow
And hearts are free once more
These Things 
Don't just happen
These Things
Can be explained:

B.
The sins of man 
Leave bitter fruit
Everywhere he goes,
But, he won't find
Forgiveness 
Till he purifies his soul
And, he knows:

3.
Dreams foster hope
Faith alters fate
Love conquers evil
And time erases hate
These Things 
Don't just happen
These things
Can be expained:
