Story behind the song
a song of hope
written to sing together at church or gatherings
Lyrics
when things seem so hopeless
and life seems so hard
and your joy is drifting away
and you can't see an end
to the means you employ
and tomorrow is just another day
somewhere there's hope
somewhere there's help
that somewhere is Jesus he's waiting
with help in his hands and with hope in his arms
that somewhere is Jesus he's waiting
when your eyes see no future
and your heart sings no song
and the clouds block the sun from your face
and there's mountains before you
you feel you can't climb
and your feet just won't run the race
somewhere there's hope
somewhere there's help
that somewhere is Jesus he's waiting
with help in his hands and with hope in his arms
that somewhere is Jesus he's waiting
when the lights in the harbor
are hidden from sight
and morning is hours away
and you feel your defeated
yes you've lost the fight
you can hang on to fight another day
cause somewhere there's hope
somewhere there's help
that somewhere is Jesus he's waiting
with help in his hands and with hope in his arms
that somewhere is Jesus he's waiting
