A Song of Hope

A message from God to those who are struggling.

Here's to the girls with scars on their wrists,

or those whose hearts men like to twist

Here's to the ones who are giving up,

tired of the rattling pills in their cup

Here's to the ones who struggle at night,

The ones about to give up the fight.

Those just trying to pay the bills,

who gaze with longing at cemetery hills

Don't give up, the battle's not won

You're focused on the clouds,

and you can't see the sun

It's coming, I swear, just take my hand

We'll walk together to the promised land

 

There's a place for us -- for you and me

But sometimes it's too dark to see

So in that moment of despair,

when everything in life seems unfair

Run to me and I'll give you peace,

Lighten your burden, your sadness cease

There's hope out there for everyone,

for He is the father, and I am the son.

My yoke is easy, and my burden light,

My everlasting love is infinite.

So those who struggle to survive the day,

I'm at your side, through the disarray.

Remember my name, remember my love,

for I am your father up above.
