A Journey of Hope

A journey Of Hope

Reward is his name 
the bird that flies
Hope is his name 
the bird that cries 

The air is bitter brisk and bleak
Reward stays home in the highest nest
the ground freezes over, his branches creak
Reward stays home. He knows best

The air is bitter brisk and bleak
Hope soars the sky seeking his needs 
round through the mountain over the peak
Hope found his home, where his happiness breeds

Reward was his name 
the bird that died.
Hope is his name 
the bird of success and pride
