Hope

Time, it just passed me by
The world? It mostly made me cry
But you, you were always there for me
You never left my side, all the days of my life
Ever faithful hope, my precious hope

You, you're not flesh and bone
And you, you never left me alone
In my darkest days you stood beside me
I almost lost you once at my most desperate hour
But you never left me, I just couldn't see you then
I had just lost my hope
But God strengthen me to not give up my hope

Hope, you're the voice inside my head
The friend to the bitter end
Giving me the will to try again
And every time I failed, I managed to try again
Because of you, my hope, the hope that is within

When things didn't go my way, you were always there
You never let me down, you helped me stand my ground
Even when the ground was sand, I managed to keep some hope
When all hope was lost, somehow I found it again, my hope
