I Believe in Hope

There’s hope in the morning sunrise

When the first light of day shines above

And I hear the song of the meadowlark

Fill the air with joy and love

I believe in hope

There’s hope when a new child is born

When the daffodil blooms in spring

When leaves newly form on the maple tree

And I hear the songbirds sing

I believe in hope

There’s hope in an act of kindness

Helping a child who is lost

Holding the hand of a friend in need

Giving not counting the cost

I believe in hope

So when I’m feeling all alone

With memories that haunt me

I think of all the good I’ve seen

Then choose the better memory

I believe in hope
