Rhythm of Hope

[Intro] Dust on the sidewalks, prayers in the air Feet on the ground, we rise from despair [Verse 1] Morning light cuts through the smoke and gray Kids lace their shoes, dreamin’ of a brighter day Murals of hope on walls still standing strong We grip our faith, singin’ the stubborn song [Pre-Chorus] Together we shoulder what the streets fire up Hands held high, we’ll never give up [Chorus] We march through the doubt, we carry the flame Our hearts beat loud, callin’ out our name Hope keeps us warm when the night won’t fade We rise, we stay, we won’t be swayed [Verse 2] Markets open slow, but the laughter is loud Neighbors nodin’ to whispers of a vow Bills stack high like a canyon wall But faith is the bridge we’ll never let fall [Pre-Chorus] Together we shoulder what the streets fire up Hands held high, we’ll never give up [Chorus] We march through the doubt, we carry the flame Our hearts beat loud, callin’ out our name Hope keeps us warm when the night won’t fade We rise, we stay, we won’t be swayed [Bridge] Rain or shine, we move as one Counting blessings till the day is won If fear comes close, we push it away There’s a brighter dawn on the way [Chorus] We march through the doubt, we carry the flame Our hearts beat loud, callin’ out our name Hope keeps us warm when the night won’t fade We rise, we stay, we won’t be swayed [Outro] So lift your eyes, feel the rhythm rise Faith is the compass, stars in our skies We’ll get there together, come what may Bright tomorrow starts today
