Hope for the Hopeless

When the night is upon you
And you’re needing a friend
There’s no hope for the future
And you’re at your wit’s end

The tears on your pillow
Won’t ease the pain
You have nothing to lose
You have nothing to gain

You may think you’re a failure
Life’s not going your way
There’s no hope for tomorrow
And there’s doubts for today

If your search for the answers
Leaves questions to spare
Lay it all at the altar
You will find comfort there

Because there’s hope for the hopeless
There’s life for the lost
There’s strength you can borrow
From that old rugged cross

There’s a light in the darkness
That leads to the place
Where there’s hope for the hopeless
In His saving grace.

    hope may be distant and obscure for the lowly whose pain seems to have no cure. but with god as our guide, there is always hope as long as we have faith on our side. isn’t this a lovely poem karjie?

    I believe there is power in the blood of the Lord. As the saying goes that the last thing to lose should be hope. This christian message empowers us NEVER to lose hope at all.
