Listen and you will hear it
'Neath the howling winter wind
That ever-fleeting secret
Found just when faith is thinned
-
In the echo of raucous thunder
In the quiet of pelting rain
The moment you start to wonder
If the sun will shine again
-
When dread kills the beating heart
When doubt shatters every bone
When despair works its dire art
When dreams are up and flown
-
It is only then you see it
In the cracking of the frost
In the moment you persist
When everything is lost
-
When the world shows only pain
With which you're forced to cope
The glimmer will remain
Once you reclaim your Hope
