A Voice of Hope

[Intro]
Heavenly Lord, I lift my hands high
Thanking You for the rescue, for the reason why
Out of storms and shadows, You set me free
Now I stand in Your light, destiny clear to me

[Verse 1]
Once I was trapped in darkness, caught in pain’s deep night
Knife to my throat, broken and fighting for my life
But Your mercy reached down, showed me a new dawn
From the depths of despair, I found where I belong

[Pre-Chorus]
You turned my pain into a voice that declares
Against violence, despair, and all that steals our prayer
This path You’ve chosen, a purpose so divine
A messenger of hope, I walk this line

[Chorus]
Heavenly Lord, I thank You today
For turning my scars into lessons I convey
I’m a beacon for the broken, a voice for the oppressed
With Your strength inside me, I’m truly blessed

[Verse 2]
Lost myself in anguish, forgot who I was meant to be
But Your love rewrote my story, set me free
Now I stand unbroken, with a message so loud
For every man and woman caught in violence’s shroud

[Pre-Chorus]
Why did You choose me for this fighting fight?
To shine a light in darkness, to make wrongs right?
Every trial, every scar, a testament of Your grace
A calling to inspire, to uplift this space

[Chorus]
Heavenly Lord, I thank You today
For turning my scars into lessons I convey
I’m a beacon for the broken, a voice for the oppressed
With Your strength inside me, I’m truly blessed

[Bridge]
Through the storms, I found my voice, I found my way
Your love a guiding star, leading me each day
From pain to purpose, from fear to hope
With You, I can cope, I can cope

[Outro]
So I stand here, grateful, under Your divine plan
A survivor, a survivor, led by Your hand
Thank you, Lord, for giving me this chance
To be a voice for those caught in violence’s dance
