Hope Lingers On

My parents, when love is gone (2x)
In our darkest hour hope lingers on

My neighbors, when peace is gone....

Chorus
I will not hate
And I will not fear
In our darkest hour
Hope lingers here

My siblings, when equality’s gone ....

My children, with tolerance gone....

Chorus

My love, when honor is gone....

My country, when justice is gone....

Chorus
