Margaret Becker - Hope in a Hopeless World lyrics
Baby born in New York City Wrapped in a blanket that’s tattered and worn Mother done the best she can Picking hope in a hopeless world Elder son, he stayed in school He listened to his mother Didn’t drink or use Yet every job he wants, he gets refused It takes hope in a hopeless world CHORUS: Looking for hope in a hopeless world Searching for love in such hateful times Trying to stay strong while my mind gets weak Looking for hope in a hopeless world Looking for hope On a corner stands a young girl The home she left was from the better part of town Her daddy did things she just can’t talk about Is there hope in a hopeless world? You got a quarter for the homeless man Can you spare more change for the soldiers who fought the war? Put some money in those hats and those tins Give them hope in a hopeless world CHORUS: Looking for hope in a hopeless world Trying to find love in such hateful times Looking for hope in a hopeless world To ease my mind, ease my mind You got to listen to the voice inside That speaks of love, don’t compromise Realize time is passing you by Mountains to climb Can’t be standing still Don’t be standing still Church is full but the prayers don’t seem to be heard Saturday’s child don’t want to go to Sunday school What ever happened to the golden rule Teach them hope in a hopeless world Somebody out there’s got to listen Somebody out there’s got to know what I’m talking about now Raise your hand, raise your hand if you’re with me Give them hope in a hopeless world Chorus |
