Never For Nothing

Margaret Becker

You cried alone by the window 
Over the love that you lost 
You gave it all 
Never counting the cost 
Rain like tears beat on your window 
Melting your heart to the floor 
No love returned 
And now you have less than before (It's) 
Chorus: 
Never for nothing 
When you love with no return 
It's never for nothing 
Light your candle in the darkness 
Cause it's never for nothing 
Your friends say you're the fool 
For loving with nothing to gain 
But they can't see the reward 
That you'll claim 
So hold on to the holy promise (that says) 
No labor of love is in vain 
Precious tears are changed to jewels 
In the rain
