Hope Is...

This is our moment
Will you stand with me?
Hope is not lost
Hope is not lost

Let the strength
Of your words
Be the spark
That ignites the flame
Proclaim your freedom
Give voice to your liberation

This is my confession
Mark these words - we will rise

Weep no more
We will prevail
Grieve no more
We will prevail

- Hope Is... by Killswitch Engage

I love these lyrics. When I saw the song title on my iPod I had to look it up. I'm trying to adopt the phrase "there's always hope". I think I've been pretty successful at it. I read this song and I was like hellz yeah, these guys get it too. Of course this isn't a Christian band, and there's some anti-religious remarks in the song as well. But I say good for them. They're speaking what's on their hearts, and they are telling thousands of teenagers that hope is not lost. Hallelujah for that.
