Hope In A Hopeless World Lyrics

Hope In A Hopeless World lyrics

The baby's born in New York City

 Wrapped in a blanket that's tattered and worn

 Mama's doing the best she can

 Findin' hope in a hopeless world

 

 Her eldest boy

 Well he stayed in school

 Listen to mama

 Didn't drink or use

 But every job he wants

 He gets refused

 Is there hope in a hopeless world

 

 Looking for  hope in a hopeless world

 Searchin' for love in such hateful times

 Tryin' to stay strong

 While the mind gets weak

 I'm lookin' for hope in a hopeless world

 

 On a corner stands  a young girl

 The home she left was from the better part of town

 Her daddy did things she'd rather not talk about

 Is there hope in a hopeless world

 

 You gotta quarter for the homeless

 Spare some changes for a soldier who fought the war

 Put some money in those hats and in those tins

 Give them hope in a hopeless world

 

 Gotto find  hope in a hopeless world

 Lookin' for love in such hateful times

 Lookin' for hope in a hopeless world 

 I got to ease my mind

 Ease my mind

 

 You gotta listen to the voice inside you

 

 That speaks of love

 Don't compromise , realise

 The time is quickly passing by

 There are mountains to climb

 You can't be standing still

 

 The churches are full but the prayers are not heard

 Saturday's child don't want to go to Sunday school

 Whatever 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

 Raise your hand if you're with me

 

 Give them hope in a hopeless world 

 Gotta find hope in a hopeless world 

 Gotta in love

 Gotta find love in hateful times

 Gotta find love

 Gotta find love and free your mind

 Gotta find love

 Is there hope in a hopeless world 

 Is there hope in a hopeless world
