Times are hard Times have changed Don't you say But I keep holding on to you It's hard to keep the faith alive day to day Leaning on the strength I've found in you You're the hope of all the Earth You are my hope You are my strength You're everything Everything I need You are my hope You are my life You are my hope You are my hope Far beyond what I can see or comprehend Etching your eternity in me Nations stream and angels sing, "Jesus reigns" And every knee bows down You're the hope of all the Earth You are my hope You are my strength You're everything Everything I need You are my hope You are my life You are my hope You are my hope Carry on and I sing of how You love and I love you now All the times that I start to sink You come and you rescue me You are my hope You are my hope
