When everything seems hopeless,
and your life seems truly bleak.
When the room is dark and lonely,
and your heart aches really deep.
When everyone around you,
says you really should give up
and the easy thing to do would be, to stay in the rut
Turn your eyes to Jesus,
chose to trust in him.
Turn your eyes to Jesus,
He will renew your hope again
Turn your eyes to Jesus,
choose to take a leap of faith,
know that he will catch you and always keep you safe.
Anything is possible,
once you make that choice.
Anything is possible,
let others hear your voice.
Show them you’ve decided; you choose to trust in hope.
Placed your faith in God above,
And know that they will see the glory and the power of His love.
Author notes
Once you choose hope, anythings possible. ~Christopher Reeve
