Hope

So I lift my hands

To the God that guides me

To the one that finds me

Even in my darkest days

He walks beside me singing

Songs of freedom, he's singing songs of life

Leading me out of the darkness

And then bringing me into the light

He never said it would be easy

He never said it would be safe

My hope, my hope, my hope

My hope, my hope, my hope

Long live the people on the streets

Hustling all day to go home and feed their families

Just trying to make ends meat

They're grinding but their finding

That they're still facing defeat

Long live the people that don't feel equal

Workin hard to pay the wages

Others playing in casinos

Long live the ones on the run

I hope they find the love they're looking for

And purpose they've been running from

My hope, my hope, my hope

My hope, my hope, my hope

He never said it would be easy

He never said it would be safe

He never said the path were walking on

Oh it wouldn't have hurdles to face

But the lord did promise me freedom

Oh the lord did promise me strength

He said we soar on wings of eagles

And not grow weary or faint

My hope, my hope, my hope

My hope, my hope, you're my world

You're my hope

There is hope in every situation

In all this pain I'm facing

For every generation

There is hope

There is hope in every situation

In all this pain I'm facing

There is hope

For every generation

There is hope

There is hope

You're are my hope my hope

My world and my joy

You're my hope

My world my world

You're my hope
