Lyrics

From Hopeless to Hope V1 Standing on a hillside, caught up in a whirl. I can't believe the love I see in these precious little girls. A life that's filled with hunger, a world that’s filled with pain. No food to eat, no place to sleep, no shelter from the rain. C1 And it's long way, from hopeless to hope. I don't know how they find the strength, I don't know how they cope. They don't know the world they love in, is stuck in poverty. They don't see this life of struggle, could be one they never leave. And it's long way, from hopeless, to hope. V2 She was standing there before us, a smile on her face, not one caused by circumstance, but one that shone with grace. She knew the love of Jesus, the touch of helping hands, one day she'll lift the others from the dirt and help them stand. C2 Cause it's long way, from hopeless to hope. I don't know how they find the strength, I don't know how they cope. They don't know the world they love in, is stuck in poverty. They don't see this life of struggle, could be one they never leave. And it's long way, from hopeless, to hope. B Oh...you see it's not about the place they're born, it's not about their past. It's all about releasing them from the rubble and the trash. It starts with just a hand of love, stretched out from me and you, I know that love can break this chain, there's so much that we can do.... V3 He was standing on a hillside, caught up in a whirl. His life to give for you and me, His life to save the world. His hands would bear my burden, His feet would take my pain. His love would pay a sin debt owed, that I could not repay. C3 IT's not a long way, from hopeless to hope. It all comes down to love He shared, and His precious blood that flowed. We can change the world they see, we just need to start with one, we don't have to know the answers, we just need to know the Son. It's not a long way...from Hopeless...to Hope
