Hope's Refrain

"...Be ready at any time to give a quiet and reverent answer to anyone who wants a reason for the hope that you have within you." - I Peter 3:15

She keeps her head high

Then bows, kissing the ground 

When she enters the room 

Spirits rise, without a sound

Holding onto our hands

Walks us through the divide

Draws us into her heart 

Pushing past, the pull of the tide

Hope laughs

And she cries

Hope wears no rags

That weigh her down

No stains; no disguise

Hope breathes

Hope calls

Hope lives

Hope stands inside and 

Tears down the walls

She’s never too young

She never grows old

She always remembers

The truth she was told

Can rescue your mind

From that dark, empty place

Leaves shame in the sea

Her sister is Grace

Hope laughs

And she cries

Hope wears no rags

That weigh her down

No stains; no disguise

Hope breathes

Hope calls

Hope lives

Hope stands inside and 

Tears down the walls
