Livin' in the country or livin' in the city
It's all the same in this crazy world
On the satellite tube, the pictures ain't pretty
But rest your heart while the planet twirls
A lot of people worry, a lot of troubled people
They just don't know how the story ends
Save mother earth, try to do their duty
And that's okay, but there's more my friend
On the edge of your seat, you can know who's in control
When the ride's complete you can rest your weary soul
We're hangin' by a scarlet thread
Colored with a Saviour's blood
Without it we'd be dead
We're hangin' by a scarlet thread
It won't break and it won't shred
The world is hangin' on by a scarlet thread
Climbin' up the ladder, climbin' down the gutter
We see it all in the tug of war
On the brink of madness, the dhip got a rudder
The captain's Jesus and he is Lord
'Till the Lord comes callin'
The world's gonna pay some dues
You can know He is comin'
You can trust that gospel news
We're hangin' by a scarlet thread
Colored with a Saviour's blood
Without it we'd be dead
We're hangin' by a scarlet thread
It won't break and it won't shred
The world is hangin' on by a scarlet thread
