It might be HOPE

I listen to this song often when I need a little boost of encouragement. It's good to be reminded of the bigger picture sometimes.

It Might be Hope
Sara Groves


you do your work the best that you can
you put one foot in front of the other
life comes in waves and makes its demands
you hold on as well as you’re able

you've been here for a long long time

but hope has a way of turning its face to you
just when you least expect it
you walk in a room
you look out a window
and something there leaves you breathless
you say to yourself
it's been a while since i felt this
but it feels like it might be hope

it's hard to recall what blew out the flame
it's been dark here since you can remember
you talk it all through to find it a name
as days go on by without number

you've been here for a long long time

but hope has a way of turning its face to you
just when you least expect it
you walk in a room you look out a window
and something there leaves you breathless
you say to yourself
it's been a while since i felt this
but it feels like it might be hope

You're a blogging machine! Love all the new posts. I wish we could have gotten together while you were here, it's just such a busy time! Glad to hear that you're feeling a little better.
Buffalo is such a weird, but fun place... no one would understand your post unless they were here at one time or another.
Love the song...
