Hope is strength to walk along
And music to my song
I'll be redeemed
Light a fire in the cold
Buy me back where I am sold
I'll be redeemed
All the waves of time are crashing
And our innocence is gone
Hope, I'll be waiting, I'll be holding on to...
I am never knowing, so I'll be holding on to hope
Stay when dirt is on my face
From my ravaging and waste
I'll be redeemed
Stay close when sand is at my feet
Let me hear the parting sea
I'll be redeemed
If I wait till light is shining
I may never find the day
Hope, I'll be waiting, I'll be holding on to...
I am never knowing, so I'll be holding on to hope
So quick to turn from promise
So quick to ask the questions
So softly the moon shines down tonight
And all my soul is silent
I'll be waiting, I'll be holding on...
I am never knowing, so I'll be holding on to hope
[repeat chorus x2]
