Keepin' Hope Alive

When the shadows fall and the heart grows weary I lift my eyes to the light that's clear. Grew up on promises carved in my bones. Mama saw a voice singing through the unknown. Daddy faced the floods with a steady gaze. Believing tomorrow's a brighter blaze. Nights we gathered close, sharing simple grace. Holding to the truth in that sacred space. Faith like a river, running deep and true. Carries me over, pulls me right on through. It's the spark in the dark, the strength in my stride. Faith that's alive, keeping hope alive. Oh, faith, my faithful friend, through thick and thin, in your hands. In your hands, Lord, I begin again. I stumbled once in the pouring rain. Doubted the path, felt the pull of the chain. But a still, small voice broke the silence wide. Caught me back home, to the other side. Faith like a river, running deep and true. Carries me over, pulls me right on through. It's the spark in the dark, the strength in my stride. Faith that's alive, keeping hope alive. Oh, faith, my faithful friend, through thick and thin, in your hands. In your hands, Lord, I begin again. Faith, oh, faith, it's the fire that won't fade. Lifts my soul higher, in your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying. In your love I'm staying.
