Hard Times Prelude

I was made in the hard times
That pain is a goldmine
It’ll make a poor fool wise, oh, yeah
It got real in the hard times
It hurt bad but I don’t mind
That hurt’ll make a heart kind
I believe that I’m where You want me
I can see from the place You brought me
There’s life in the light
Of what the hard times taught me
Though it didn’t go the way I planned it
I learned how to live open-handed
And a brand new day with
What the hard times taught me
Woo-hoo, ooh-ooh
Mmh…
