When I was younger I remember listening to all my my favorite songs over and over while looking at the CD jacket trying to memorize all the lyrics. I loved reading all of the lyrics of each song and relating them to my life and singing the songs over and over again.
It seems now I hardly ever have any lyrics memorized (It must be the Mommy-brain!) and if I do it’s the theme song to Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. As part of being an ambassador of the , I’ve been hooked on the song “Here’s Hope” performed by Jewel. It’s a beautiful song and you can also hear it performed by Owl City and Jay Sean.
I finally was able to sit down and actually read these meaningful lyrics and I would love for you to also.
Here’s Hope
(Here’s hope)
(Here’s hope)
(Here’s hope)
Everywhere everybody needs a neighbour
Showing up when times get hard
But there’s friends of sons and daughters
Saying grace without supper in your backyard
Who doesn’t wanna be a hero?
At least a little bit of helpin’ out
There’s some things you’re never gonna help or change
But hunger’s somethin’ we can turn around
Here’s hope (here’s hope)
Showin’ up at your front door
Here’s hope (here’s hope)
Yeah what everybody’s looking for
Here’s your one chance to make a difference
Here’s your one choice to give a helping hand
There’s room at the table for more
Yeah here’s hope
Yeah here’s hope
There’s a small-town girl in third grade
Makin’ sure her sisters get enough
She sees her mama working two jobs worrying and crying,
Doing everything but giving up
If a miracle’s a gift when you need it
Then it’s time for stepping in
Here’s to families and kids, where ever you live
Never ever wondering again
Here’s hope (here’s hope)
Showin’ up at your front door
Here’s hope (here’s hope)
Yeah what everybody’s looking for
Here’s your one chance to make a difference
Here’s your one choice to give a helping hand
There’s room at the table for more
Yeah here’s hope
Here’s to going to bed not hungry
Here’s to changing the story
Here’s to bigger hearts and brighter days
Let me hear you sing it for me
Let me hear you sing it for me
Here’s hope (here’s hope)
Showin’ up at your front door
Here’s hope (here’s hope)
Yeah what everybody’s looking for
Here’s your one chance to make a difference
Here’s your one choice to give a helping hand
There’s room at the table for more
Yeah here’s hope (here’s hope)
Yeah here’s hope (here’s hope)
Yeah here’s hope (here’s hope (yeah here’s hope))
Yeah here’s hope (here’s hope (yeah here’s hope))
Yeah here’s hope
