"Hope Returns" lyrics

"Hope Returns"

So this is how it feels when standin' strong
Turns into barely even holdin' on
The plans you had are shattered on the floor
And your fear tells your faith, there's no use in prayin'
Those prayers anymore

When your world is crashin', when your knees hit the ground
When your heart is askin', "What do I do now?"
Just when you think it can't get worse
Hold on, that's when hope returns
Like a new sun breakin' through the darkest night
Like a whisper sayin', "It'll be alright"
I know you're tired, I know it hurts
But hold on, that's when hope returns
And that's when hope returns

I know it's hard to see the other side
Through all the where-are-yous and don't-know-whys
I know it looks like hope is in the grave
But He's still on the throne, so be still and know
That He's still rollin' stones away

When your world is crashin', when your knees hit the ground
When your heart is askin', "What do I do now?"
Just when you think it can't get worse
Hold on, that's when hope returns
Like a new sun breakin' through the darkest night
Like a whisper sayin', "It'll be alright"
I know you're tired, I know it hurts
But hold on, that's when hope returns
Yeah

Hold on, 'cause hope returns

When your world is crashin', when your knees hit the ground
When your heart is askin', "What do I do now?"
Just when you think it can't get worse
Hold on, that's when hope returns
Like a new sun breakin' through the darkest night
Like a whisper sayin', "It's gonna be alright"
I know you're tired, I know it hurts
But hold on, that's when hope returns
That's when hope returns
Hope returns
