Hope cries like the bird at night
Starting to sing before dawn
Fighting the dark’s chains of doubt
Finding a limb to cling upon
Undoubting the fact of light
Even when the last star is gone
Hope fights like the ship at sea
Rowing just as hard as they can
Unwilling to admit defeat
Despite the great dark ocean span
Fixing on the beam of light
That promises there is still land
Hope stands like the flower strong
Beaten down by the pouring rain
Seeing through the endless storm’s
Driving torrents and crushing pain
Still holding its head up high
With faith the sun will shine again
