Hope is like the lantern That shines on darkened nights When times in life are testing And sorrow is our plight Hope still shows a future We must find the strength to see Regardless of the weight we bear In our misery Hope is still a chance When the hearts filled with despair Hope is what we cling to When we find nobody's there Hope is there to guide us To a path that leads the way Leaving all our fears behind To tomorrow's brighter day
