The Hope that I Have
These are the times we live in.
This is the day I see.
The sky is cloudy and gloomy,
But the clouds will not defeat me.
The struggles threaten to smother,
My strength is growing weak.
But there is One who is stronger,
Who gives the love I seek.
No matter how much pain,
No matter how hard the road,
My heart is filled with joy,
Because he bears my load.
I will not be drowned
By the flood of tears I cry.
Because at the end of this race
All those tears will dry.
