Lyrics
Hope
Hope is a word that is ill-defined, but all understand it
Hope need not be justified, and all of use will find it
Hope is the force that guides our lives, who can deny it
Hope can be free or a painful lie, but who would refuse it
Hope and despair are our only two paths, and we have to choose it
Hope I choose and at despair I laugh, I find strength in it
Hope is as free as the imagination, I indulge in it
Hope is a brilliance that is universally simple, God can be found with it
