Analysis of TRUE HOPE

Barry Green Jr 1973 (Florida)



Truth hides in a dream
Lies rushing a scream
Where's I stand?
Lord give me Your hand

True hope in a Cross for away
True hope, closer every day
Now I stand in hope anew
Now I stand, my hope is You

The promises broken, fall all apart
How do I get back to where I start ?
Hope is calling out to you and me,
The Hope hanging on an ancient tree

Come, let us bow down
Come, let Grace abound
Shout out loud at the Hope
Giving us all we need to cope

True Hope, the Cross nears me
True Hope, at last I can see
True Hope, come see it too
True Hope, floods over you

So I stand and proclaim
True Hope is in Jesus Name
No other name is given
By which we are forgiven

The One True Hope is found
When you finally bow down
AMEN
