Hope for the Hurting
There’s a girl who hears voices that aren’t really there,
There’s a boy who can’t believe the real voices that actually care,
There’s a man who can’t see the light on the other side,
There’s a woman with painful scars to hide,
There’s a teenager who can’t stop a full stomach feeding,
There’s another who is terrified of any kind of eating,
There’s a young man who seems like the class class clown
But on the inside all he feels is down
There’s a person who can’t escape the fear,
There’s another who can’t stop the tears
There’s a man with an addiction
That’s only to his life brings friction
They struggle with things that nobody can see
But they feel that a broken person is all they can be
All of them with so much pain
They can’t see what to others seems so plain
That there’s hope to be found
That there are people who care
That there’s a God who is everywhere
I would give them all hope if I only could
Because what they need most is to be understood
The joy in life doesn’t come easily
But the kind you fight for means more than that which is free
