As the last autumn leaves are falling Blackened skies yield rain, has the sun disappeared? Another winter descends like dying hope Let me see through it all that youre still near Oh Lord Never let me lose hope If I stumble in the shadow of sorrow Will you lift me, will you carry me through the years? If the weight of the world brings me down to my knees Will I feel you dry my bitter tears? Oh Lord I need to see you through my tears Never let me lose hope Lead me through, lead me on lead me over the gates to a new tomorrow In the days of disillusionment Frustration and discontent In the hours of doubt and disbelief Days of mourning and of grief Oh Lord On the edge of the depths of despair Never let me lose hope Hear my cries! Desperate hands reach out to you Washed in tears of pain In these eyes, remain the shadows of yesterday Will you steal them away? Hear my cries Desperate hands reach out to you You who suffered pain In my mind, I see the weight that fell on you To bring me home again Give me hope again
