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
