I know the feeling, know it so well
bill's piling up, worries abound,
feels like I'm walking a mile in hell
can't see the sky staring at the ground
hope that lifts
hope that soars
things will shift
there will be more
I'm going to trust you,
to take care of me,
going to turn to you
in my hour of need
o lord
o lord
I know the feeling, I know the pain
everything good has gone away
only the pain and misery remain
and the troubles are here to stay
hope that lifts
hope that soars
things will shift
there will be more
I'm going to trust you,
to take care of me,
going to turn to you
in my hour of need
o lord
o lord
I've been there and I've done that,
work so hard to pick myself up,
only to trip, land on my back
another door seems to be shut
hope that lifts
hope that soars
things will shift
there will be more
I'm going to trust you,
to take care of me,
going to turn to you
in my hour of need
o lord
o lord
messy world, it's a messy life
dreams have a way of getting crushed
no shortage of envy and strife
and it's so tempting to give up
hope that lifts
hope that soars
things will shift
there will be more
I'm going to trust you,
to take care of me,
going to turn to you
in my hour of need
o lord
o lord
I know the feeling, I know the pain
everything good has gone away
only the pain and misery remain
and the troubles are here to stay
hope that lifts
hope that soars
things will shift
there will be more
I'm going to trust you,
to take care of me,
going to turn to you
in my hour of need
o lord
o lord
still I know this isn't the end
it's just the path to heaven's door
he is faithful my best friend
there's going to be so much more
hope that lifts
hope that soars
things will shift
there will be more
I'm going to trust you,
to take care of me,
going to turn to you
in my hour of need
o lord
o lord
hope that lifts
hope that soars
things will shift
there will be more
I'm going to trust you,
to take care of me,
going to turn to you
in my hour of need
o lord
o lord
I've got hope, it will get me through, I've got hope in you
