Friends carry me safely over
Time, ferry me down the river
Friends carry me safely over
Life, tend me on my journey
Love call me home.
Hope is the realization of the inner connectedness of all things; of your life and your daily activity with the cosmic scheme of things. The awareness of who you are, that you are the self--that gives you hope. Faith and hope stem from the same inner, intuitive realization of who you are, that you are here for a purpose and that nothing on earth can shake that.
