Hope is a flame burnin' in the heart Shinin' through the dark and the wind and the rain Hope is flame Hope is a seed planted in the spring For the beauty it will bring and the family it will feed Hope is a seed And when the darkness falls like a curtain When we can't make to the dawn Hope is a voice callin' out to the hurtin' saying hold on Hope is a song sung through your tears For a friend who will be near even though they're gone Hope is a song Hope is a dream showin' us the way From where we are today to where we long to be Hope is a dream And when the darkness falls like a curtain When we can't make to the dawn Hope is a voice callin' out to the hurtin' saying hold on Just hold on Hope is a flame burning in the heart Shinin' through the dark and the wind and the rain
