Hope - NewSong

Anything you can name, I tried it

Doing my best to fill this hole in my heart

Hope was always out on the horizon

But I could never ever seem to reach quite that far

And I had everything this world could offer

Everything but what I needed most

I called out to Jesus, «Please come help me»

He heard my cry and He gave me hope

I can live for forty days and nights without a single bite to eat

I can live for hours and hours without a drop to drink

And I can hold my breath for minutes at a time

But I can’t live a second without hope in my life

Now everyday I wake up smiling

Knowin' that He’s got a perfect plan for my life

He’s changing everything about me

He lets me see this great big world through His eyes

I can’t believe the places that He takes me

I can’t believe the joy that I feel

He fills my heart with so much hope for tomorrow

He took my life and made it oh so real

I can live for forty days and nights without a single bite to eat

I can live for hours and hours without a drop to drink

And I can hold my breath for minutes at a time

But I can’t live a second without hope in my life

I can’t live a second without hope in my life

Hope is my oxygen

The food that feeds my soul

Jesus quenched my deepest thirst

Oh, Jesus made me whole

I can live for forty days and nights without a single bite to eat

I can live for hours and hours without a drop to drink

And I can hold my breath for minutes at a time

But I can’t live a second without hope in my life

No, I can’t live a second without hope

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no

Not without hope
