There is a trinket
A treasure that we all have
Just waiting to spring
We have a treasure inside of ourselves
That not many people find
Some people spend their whole lives
Searching for that one thing
That everyone has
It's in the heart of a child
It's locked away
Just waiting to be found
Just waiting to be accessed
When the world starts to turn on us
When it seems like things
Are not quite going as planned
When we have to make it through the storm
And when we feel like life
Just keeps throwing one curve ball
After another
It's hope
We all have the ability to hope
To dream
And to love
With hope we can get through anything
It gives you the strength
To carry on in even the darkest times
We must be willing to find that hope
That lies dormant within all of us
Or we will inevitably get lost
Losing ourselves more and more
To an unrelenting world
It can be easy to lose sight of who we are
It can be even easier to lose hope altogether
But if we hold onto hope
If we keep it in our grasp
We can move mountains
And do great things
That we might not have thought
We were capable of
