Hold on to Hope

Hold on to Hope – Ernie Hendrickson

VERSE 1
It’s been a long time holding on to hope
With many a turn down a winding road
Through the wind and rain, through the ice and snow
Yeah it’s been a long time holding on to hope

Years ago when all the world was new
Your boat set out to sail the ocean blue
Now with weary eyes, you’re at the end of your rope
Trying to your soul to hold on to hope

CHORUS
Hold on, hold on, hold on to hope
Hold on, hold on, hold on to hope

VERSE 2
Telephone’s ringin’, your friend’s down with the blues
He read the morning paper, watched the evenin’ news
Said to himself, must be some kind of joke
For a man in this cold world to hold on to hope

CHORUS
Hold on, hold on, hold on to hope
Hold on, hold on, hold on to hope
