~
Ray Of
Hope ~
A song
of
sympathy
is
echoing
It's cry
of
deep
compassion
still,
From
the expanses
of a
dry
Australian
outback
To the
steamy
jungles
of
Brazil.
For a
bridge
all across
the
world
of
loving
hearts
Unites
together as
one hope in the
tears,
To
comfort
the
grieving
heartache
Not
stilled
by
passing
years.
Every
moment the
questions
come
Maybe
yet
anew,
seeking solace
all
the
more,
For
time
is
capturing
the
treasure
Of the
sweet
memory
of
all.
But
may
the
strength
combined
Of
prayer
rising to
the
throne as
one,
Reassure the
lurking
fear
Of
lovers,
parents,
daughters
and sons.
For
though
we
speak
of
gathering
courage
From
platforms
of a
rising
might,
Softly
fall
the
broken
tears
of
grief
In the
silence
of the
night.
Then
may
those
tears
keep
falling
For
they
will
not be
wept
in
vain,
Our
precious
Father's
gentle
Hand
Is still
cradling
every
pain.
As His
tears
mingle
in the
coldest
rain
With arms
extended
wide in tender hugs,
To
enfold
every
broken
heart
In whispers
of
such
reassuring
love.
For
as the
bridge over
troubled
water He
comes
So we
are never
more alone,
For in
Him, shine
all
the
rays
of everlasting
hope
In
His peace we
are
at home.
