[Verse 1]
While there is life, there’s hope, Spaniards do say,
What good is life, though, when all hope is gone?
With our hearts breaking, we can nightly pray,
Try to ignore reason’s call to move on.
[Verse 2]
Faith for a time can keep our hope alive,
Drown out despair’s compelling siren’s song,
Until the sands of time slowly contrive,
To wear to nothing that which once was strong.
[Chorus]
While there is life, there’s hope, that much is true,
When hope is gone, despair will follow through.
[Verse 3]
And yet I cling to that thin, fading dream,
That all might yet be well for whom I love,
For no one knows what will flow in life’s stream,
Known only to the mind of God above.
[Chorus]
While there is life, there’s hope, that much is true,
When hope is gone, despair will follow through.
[Outro - Close mic, emotional, intimate, breathy]
Please help my dear wife, God, great is her need,
I beg you, dearest Lord, please intercede.
