When you look around and see
This world that looks quite empty.
Just look up and face the cross.
There is hope for you and me!

Your dreams, ideas and plans,
Must all be put aside.
Hope will be your great reward
When you choose to abide.

So build your hope on nothing less
Then what the cross has done.
You will never be disappointed
For hope is what you’ve won.

Finally He will cause justice to be victorious.
And His name will be the hope of all the world.
Matthew 12:20-21
