Tomorrow’s Sun ~ There’s Always Hope

This picture that popped up on FB this morning, reminded me once more, of how grateful I am for each new day that I have survived my past, to be who I have become today and to be where I am today... Proof to me, that there is always, always hope, just as the sun will always rise again no matter what.

Oh, thoughts of death – BE GONE!
What power you have,
To fill my heart with fear
And nightmares of the grave!
 
BE GONE! BE GONE!
You have no right to stay
And cause me so much dread,
Just GO AWAY!
 
For I intend to live
For many years to come…
Darkness, GO AWAY!
And bring me back the sun!
 
The glorious sun of hope and faith
That tomorrow will be grand,
Let me live to serve Thee Father…
Please heal me with Thy Hand.

THERE’S ALWAYS HOPE

Oh yes, there’s always hope,
There’s always a tomorrow,
And no one knows what tomorrow holds,
Of joys, or trials, or sorrow.
No one can predict the fate that lies ahead,
Why waste time being a pessimist,
Filling your thoughts with dread?
For while there’s life within you,
And as sure as tomorrow will come,
Your life could change in an instant,
As the light that comes from the sun.
Clouds may come and go, blocking out its rays,
For a while it may be dark and cold,
But there’s still hope of warm sunny days.
So, cherish every minute,
No matter what state you are in
Let love fill those empty spaces,
For who knows what tomorrow will bring?
