Hope

I am blessed and thankful for hope,
Hope that makes me not ashamed.
Hope for today, and hope for tomorrow,
Hope when all around me is drenched in sorrow.

There’ll be no night, there’ll be no morning
Without hope in my heart I know, you’re the 
Heartbeat of all I do.  You’re the wind beneath my
Wings. I can’t live a day without you.

I can live without many things and life still 
Can go on. But to face tomorrow without hope
In my heart, life would be miserable from finish
To start, I can’t live a day without the Lord.

I can see that your hope is forever settled upon, and in the Lord. I agree! The center core of humanity centered upon the love of the Lord, and their hope centered upon him, in his love is what it is going to take to resolve wickedness of the world. Sincerely, Moses
