DARE TO HOPE

songer.co/song/b11ffigysstxi6832kucr2ad

Verse 1
A night storm, dark.. so very long
Deep shadows came and took my song
I drown in tears that flood my soul
And hopeless dread… seeks its toll

Verse 2
Lonely hours, the midnight cries
Sorrow tries to escape from these eyes
Once held dreams far out of sight
Deep water’s grave drowns all the light

Chorus
Yet I still dare to hope
When I recall to mind
A faithful love so true
His mercies, they are mine
A light so great and bright
One darkness cannot fight
He brings morning into view
His grace afresh and new

Bridge
I will hope in Him, my inheritance true,
The Lord is good, His love sees me through,
The silent night, until morning’s saving grace,
In the quiet, He’s my hiding place.
Morning’s come… we’re face to face.

Chorus (Repeat)
Yet I still dare to hope
When I recall to mind
A faithful love so true
His mercies, they are mine
A light so great and bright
One darkness cannot fight
He brings morning into view
His grace afresh and new
