Hope for Humanity - summer

Look over the city -
shining lights below,
wondering who the people are
and where they all will go.
Will it be a good day
or filled with fear and strife?
There’s a story for each soul
and there is God for every life.

So instead of feeling hopeless
or helpless with what we see
there are promises and prayers for these
and a hope for humanity.

What if an excitement came –
that all the sadness could be changed
‘cause healing had been prearranged
by the Lord who came to heal?
Revelations one by one
brought peace to those who seek God’s Son
and Jesus comes to make it right,
when the Holy One comes into our night.

So instead of feeling hopeless
or helpless with what we see,
there are promises and prayers for these
and a hope for humanity.
He’s the hope for humanity.
