Hope

          Eb                       Bb
So I lift my hands to the God that guides me
                F                    Gm
To the one that finds me even in my darkest days
                   Eb                   Bb
He walks beside me singin' songs of freedom
         F                 Gm
Oh, He's singing songs of life
            Eb                    Bb
And they're leading me out of the darkness
         F                    Gm
And then bringing me into the light, hey
   Eb                     Bb
He never said it would be easy, no
   F                      Gm
He never said we would be safe


[Chorus]
Eb       Bb       F        Gm
My hope, my hope, my hope, ho-o-o-ope
Eb     Bb     F      Gm
Hoo-oo-oo-oo, who-o-o-o-oa
Eb       Bb       F        Gm
My hope, my hope, my hope, ho-o-o-ope
Em      Bb    F      Gm
Hoo-oo-oo-oo, who-o-o-o-oa


[Verse 2]
Eb                          Bb
Long live the people on the streets
F                                          Gm
Hustlin' all day to go home and feed their families
Eb                       Bb
Just tryin' to make ends meat
F                                                              Gm
They're grindin' but they're findin' that they're still facin' defeat
Eb                                           Bb
Long live the people that don't feel they're equal
F                                                 Gm
Workin' hard to pay the wages, others playin' in casinos
Eb                        Bb
Long live the ones on the ru-un
F
I hope they find the love they're lookin' for
                         Gm
And purpose they've been runnin' from


[Chorus]
Eb      Bb       F         Gm
My hope, my hope, my hope, ho-o-o-ope
Eb     Bb      F       Gm
Hoo-oo-oo-oo, who-o-o-o-oa
Eb        Bb      F        Gm
My hope, my hope, my hope, ho-o-o-ope
Eb       Bb    F       Gm
Hoo-oo-oo-oo, who-o-o-o-oa


[Verse 3]
Eb                       Bb
He never said it would be easy, no
F                         Gm
He never said we would be safe
Eb                           Bb
He never said the path we're walking on
 F                              Gm
Oh, it wouldn't have hurdles to face
Eb                          Bb
But the Lord did promise me freedom
F                           Gm
Oh, the Lord did promise me strength
Eb                            Bb
He said we'd soar on wings of eagles
F                     Gm
And not grow weary or faint, yea-a-ah


[Chorus]
 Eb      Bb       F        Gm
My hope, my hope, my hope, ho-o-o-ope
 Eb     Bb       F    Gm
Hoo-oo-oo-oo, who-o-o-o-oa
 Eb      Bb       F                Gm
My hope, my hope, You're my world, You're my hope
 Eb      Bb   F       Gm
Hoo-oo-oo-oo, who-o-o-o-oa


[Outro]
          Eb                Bb                       F
