"Hope in Front of Me"

I’ve been running through rain
that I thought would never end,
trying to make it on faith
in a struggle against the wind.

I’ve seen the dark and the broken places,
but I know in my soul,
no matter how bad it gets,
I’ll be all right.

There’s hope in front of me.
There’s a light, I still see it. 
There’s a hand still holding me,
even when I don’t believe it.

I might be down, but I’m not dead.
There’s better days still up ahead.
Even after all I’ve seen,
there's hope in front of me.

There’s a place at the end of the storm
you finally find
where the hurt and the tears and the pain
all fall behind.

You open up your eyes and up ahead
there's a big sun shining.
Right then and there you realize
you'll be all right.

There’s a hope still burning.
I can feel it rising through the night,
and my world’s still turning.
I can feel your love here by my side.

You’re my hope.
You’re the light, I still see it.
Your hands are holding me
even when I don’t believe it.
I’ve got to believe
I still have hope.
You are my hope.

[Danny Gokey, Hope In Front of Me]
