Hope Beyond Despair

Hope beyond despair
Does anyone ever find it there
Can you collect the pieces of a broken shattered mind
Are you able to restore all of the ties that bind
Can you tell exactly where the ocean meets the stream
Or distinguish when the sun creates a moonbeam
Do you know what separates hatred from fear
How do you know if what you can't see
Is ever even here
Can you find love in a heart
That has long since grown cold
Or find renewed strength in a bond
That has become weak and old
Can you see hope BEYOND my despair
Can you show me that you really DO care
Please. Help me overcome every fear
For I can only stand if you are near
