Hope
When disaster and attacks devastate our homes
When our dreams of success are threatened
When sickness and death stalk our loved ones
She lifts up her head and points us forward
When suffering and death seizes our vicinity
And fear like foe threatens every possibility
When doubts seizes upon our sensibility
Her light brightens our visibility
When fear like guest in our bosoms we host
When depression becomes our lot and fate
She appears from nowhere like a ghost
And tarries with us to restores our faith
She is life, she is light
She shines bright through dark tunnel
She is a companion through the dark night
She is hope and she breaks every turmoil
