Love Is Hope.

Your love is the hope that I am praying for

Even when I crawl into a corner and my life abhor

I want to dress slovenly; reject anything with the word explore

When I need to implode and turn into a great black hole

Your love is the hope that I am praying for.

Your love is the hope that I am praying for

Praying in my personal Gethsemane knowing my destiny is Golgotha

One being crucified with you; yet knowing You will free me

From this body of wreck and ruin

Your love is the hope that I am praying for.

Your love is the hope that I am praying for

Grievance, sin, temptation, denial

Do not let me drink from this worlds vial

Let me be in Heavenly renewal and revival

Your love is the hope that I am praying for.

Your love is the hope that I am praying for

Among the divisions, desenters, and derisions that infiltrate us

The hate, prejudice and hopelessness that paralyses us

To moving closer to Jesus in our everyday lives

Your love is the hope that I am praying for.
