Hope Is Just Ahead
I wondered why I had the blues
So I turned on the evening news
Children runnin' from their school because of some damn fool
Had no morals he must prove
Another kid laid in the blood
Another town drowned in the flood
Just a tragic trail of tears
Lessons not learned through the years
Heaven save us from our fears
Hope is just ahead, sorrows just behind us
From what the good book says: The truth will never bind us
Who's to say what we shall find
I guess the proof was sure in time
To them let's keep the dreamers big
Surely hope is just ahead
Oh, you gotta believe
You gotta keep your faith
Get down on your knees
Oh, you gotta believe
People fightin' in the streets
Millions with no food to eat
How much longer can we last
If we learn nothin' from our past
These are the questions in our heads
Hope is just ahead, sorrows just behind us
From what the good book says: The truth will never bind us
Who's to say what we shall find
I guess the proof was sure in time
To them let's keep the dreamers big
Surely hope is just ahead
To them, let's keep the dreamers big
Surely hope is just ahead, hmm
Oh, you gotta believe
Keep your faith
Get down on your knees
Oh, you gotta believe
Oh, you gotta believe
Gotta keep your faith
Get down on your knees
Oh, you gotta believe
So I turned on the evening news
Children runnin' from their school because of some damn fool
Had no morals he must prove
Another kid laid in the blood
Another town drowned in the flood
Just a tragic trail of tears
Lessons not learned through the years
Heaven save us from our fears
Hope is just ahead, sorrows just behind us
From what the good book says: The truth will never bind us
Who's to say what we shall find
I guess the proof was sure in time
To them let's keep the dreamers big
Surely hope is just ahead
Oh, you gotta believe
You gotta keep your faith
Get down on your knees
Oh, you gotta believe
People fightin' in the streets
Millions with no food to eat
How much longer can we last
If we learn nothin' from our past
These are the questions in our heads
Hope is just ahead, sorrows just behind us
From what the good book says: The truth will never bind us
Who's to say what we shall find
I guess the proof was sure in time
To them let's keep the dreamers big
Surely hope is just ahead
To them, let's keep the dreamers big
Surely hope is just ahead, hmm
Oh, you gotta believe
Keep your faith
Get down on your knees
Oh, you gotta believe
Oh, you gotta believe
Gotta keep your faith
Get down on your knees
Oh, you gotta believe
