New Hope
Dear Lord, I know you'd never give to me
More grief than I tolerate, that's true.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt,
I could not bear the sorrow without you.
Just as I think the world too dark and drear
To hold the grief I feel, the sun comes out.
I could not bear the sorrow without you.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt.
Once more the day is bright and clouds are gone.
I thank you for the lovely skies of blue.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt,
I could not bear the sorrow without you.
With you beside me Lord, the world has joy
And my whole being does a turn-about.
I could not bear the sorrow without you.
I know this Lord, without a single doubt.
Inspired by Jared Pickett's "Mirrored Refrain" contest.won hm
