I know you tried it all
In your search for the truth
Somehow you've fallen for a lie
You're trying to recall the simple ways of your youth
Where your faith is strong
And you'll never ever question why

But you found out life wasn't easy
Sometimes the answers were hard to see
You didn't have the strength for one more try

CHORUS:
I'll be holding out hope to you
Even when this world breaks your heart in two
When your life is consumed by your fear and your doubts
I'll be holding out hope to you

In the stillness of the night
There's a voice calling you
Seems as though you've heard it once before
In the darkness there's a light
And a hand to lead you through
To the hope that waits beyond the open door

And you found out life is worth living
And the answers lie where your faith begins
It's there you find the strength for one more try
Repeat CHORUS 2x

When your life is consumed by your fear and your doubts
I'll be holding out hope to you
I'll be holding out hope to you
