Cried Before, Laughed Before, Sang Before, Quiet Before

XiaoMin’s Canaan Hymn no. 520

Lyrics & Music by XiaoMing
Vocals by Nong Tao

Cried before, laughed before, sang before, quiet before; 
walked before, paused before, fired up before, given up before.  
Passed the lowest valley, climbed the highest hill.  
Year after year, had losses, had suffering, had harvest. 
Waves of time swept through, tears of happiness and sorrow streamed down. 
O Look, a heavenly river finally flows toward China, flows through China, cures China, and embraces China.
