Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Times have changed,
Don't you say?
But I keep
Holding on to you
It's hard to keep the
Faith alive day to day
I've found in you
You're the hope
Of all the earth
[Chorus:]
You are my hope (my hope)
You are my strength
You're everything, everything I need
You are my hope (my hope)
You are my life
You are my hope [Repeat: x1]
Far beyond what I
Can see or comprehend
Etching your eternity in me
Nations stream, and
Angels sing "Jesus reigns"
And every knee bows down
You're the hope
Of all the earth
[Chorus]
You are my hope (my hope)
You are my strength
You're everything, everything I need
You are my hope (my hope)
You are my life
You are my hope [Repeat: x1]
Carry on and I sing of how,
You love and I love you now
All the times that I start to sink,
You come and you rescue me
You are my hope
You are my hope
[Chorus]
You are my hope (my hope)
You are my strength
You're everything, everything I need
You are my hope (my hope)
You are my life
You are my hope [Repeat: x1]
[Chorus: Repeats)
