Steven Curtis Chapman - Heartbeat of Hope lyrics

The taste of my tears The day I watched you drift away And I remember Before you disappeared I started hoping for the day When I'd see your face And look in your eyes Feel your embrace And we'd never say goodbye I can hear it in the baby's cry In a mother's lullaby Everytime the morning sky Begins to glow I can feel it pounding deep inside It's keeping faith alive And i will not let it die The heartbeat of hope I am learning I'm learning as I go Just how thankful hope can be The ache of yearning Can never let you go It has become a part of me But pure are the longings Holding on and holding out I'll keep holding to the one thing I know I can not live without I can hear it in the baby's cry In a mother's lullaby Everytime the morning sky Begins to glow I can feel it pounding deep inside It's keeping faith alive And i will not let it die Because it's more Than something I believe in It's a song that makes me dance When my feet refuse to move It's the wind that bumps the water That I can not get through I can hear it in the baby's cry In a mother's lullaby Everytime the morning sky Begins to glow I can feel it pounding deep inside It's keeping faith alive And I will not let it die The heartbeat of hope I will not let it die The heartbeat of hope I will not let it die It's keeping faith alive It's the heartbeat of hope Keep it alive The heartbeat of hope I will not let it die No, I will not let it die Keep it alive Keep alive The heartbeat of hope
