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.
