Lyrics
JESUS HOPE AND ME Copyright Lynn Case & Russ Case 2010
Verse:
Barely eighteen, broken family, a life out of control
And in the midst of no direction a child of my own
And the doctor warned me said I shouldn't face it all alone
Verse:
But she came early and she was perfect except her heart was weak
And I didn't have a soul to turn to so I got on my knees
And in those moments I found hope and I knew what her name would be
Chorus:
And for a long time it was only Jesus, Hope and me
Maybe not that typical, but to me it will always be family
Verse:
Oh those green eyes that precious smile I loved her desperately
And I marveled how one little angel could make me love so deep
Then that weak heart came back to haunt me when Hope was only three
Chorus:
And through those long days it was only Jesus, Hope and me
Maybe not that typical, but to me it will always be family
Bridge:
And I thought I'd die when I lost Hope but the thing that got me through
Was knowing it was family she was going to
And I believe with all I am when it comes my time to go
Oh I'll stand upon that rocky shore and Hope will lead me home
Chorus:
And in that moment it will be Jesus, Hope and me
Maybe not that typical but to me it's a family
Yeah in that moment it will be Jesus, Hope and me
Maybe not that typical but to me it will always be family
