Hope Is a Handmade Gift

As life reveals itself to you don't be afraid The best gift that it gives is usually handmade Just grab hold of your destiny and hang on tight And know that you can lead yourself into the light In blackest night there always comes around the morn When all seems lost there is a hopeful glimmer born Deep as the river runs will be the love you find If you allow someone to bless you and be kind When you're out walking in the storm try to be calm Let sunshine gather 'round your shoulders like a balm Wrap yourself in strength of purpose every day Never give up hope that you will find your way Believe the colors of the wind will paint your soul Though circumstance can wear you down and take its toll Keep your spirits lifted high to heaven above Surround yourself with sweet bouquets of hope and love
