In Hope Forever Bound

What hope is there when the view we have is sadness all around On sleepless nights, we toss and turn when troubles bring us down And yet, behold - as morning comes and nighttime fades away There is hope again; it's rising with the Son another day When things have turned against us, our face a permanent frown No sunny days to greet us, only darkness can be found But look a little closer - hear the children laugh and play It lifts our hearts; it helps our souls to face a new today At times it seems there is no help when hard times come to you All hope is lost; we think we have no one to help us through It's then that we remember, though it seems we're on our own He is always right here with us and we'll never be alone Christ made a promise to us - He wrote it in His Word That promise stands forever - He sealed it with His Blood He said we're more than conquerors in what we're called to do No matter what the trial in life, His love will carry us through There are issues that arise to give our fears a standing place We humble ourselves and lift our prayers, no matter what we face There's no trial or tribulation that will ever keep us down For in Faith we are victorious and in Hope forever bound
