Hope For Always

歌詞

Perhaps our song with the highest "twang factor", Hope For Always was consistently a good concert song. Maybe it was the very fast tempo, the praise-ful "cry" in the lyrics, or the western theme. Who knows. This song has always been very different from other Lu songs... and that's ok. I'm not entirely sure that I understand every line in this song, to be perfectly honest. There is a picture, verse by verse, of struggle. There is also a picture of a hope that is only found in "You", that is, Jesus Christ. As we struggle and fail, He can lift us up and make good out of what seems only bad, but we have to go to Him on our knees. Finally, the song wraps up with simple truth... "You, with love and truth, will make us new, and will hold us thru..." when 'all is mine' is over would You have the time, my friend to push me up and over hold me till the glory end, and when my pain is sober would You have the mind to send hope for always ever hold me - this wicked man and me, with pain and all might take the fall yet grow so tall and creeping like a wonder is the fear that drives me mad "that all is going under, all is always ever sad" and throwing winter summer and breezing me to my greed but give me hope for always 'all' is falling on my knees and You, with love and truth will make us new and will hold us thru the sins of the world wouldn't hold You though it seems each day i try please, bless me with hope for always that i might live, might die and me, with pain and all might take the fall yet grow so tall You, with love and truth will make us new and will hold us thru
