Steven Curtis Chapman - Heartbeat Of Hope Lyrics

I still remember the taste of my tears
The day I watched you drift away
And I remember before you disappeared
I started hoping for the day

When I'd see your face
And look in your eyes
Feel your embrace
And we'd never say goodbye

I can hear it in the baby's cry
In a mother's lullaby
Every time the morning sky
Begins to glow

I can feel it pounding deep inside
It's keeping faith alive
And I will not let it die
The heartbeat of hope

I am learning, I'm learning as I go
Just how thankful hope can be
The ache of yearning can never let you go
It has become a part of me

But pure are the longings
Holding on and holding out
I'll keep holding to the one thing
I know I can not live without

I can hear it in the baby's cry
In a mother's lullaby
And every time the morning sky
Begins to glow

I can feel it pounding deep inside
It's keeping faith alive
And I will not let it die because it's more
Than something I believe in

It's a song that makes me dance
When my feet refuse to move
It's the wind that bumps the water
That I can not get through

I can hear it in the baby's cry
In a mother's lullaby
And every time the morning sky
Begins to glow

I can feel it pounding deep inside
It's keeping faith alive
And I will not let it die
The heartbeat of hope

I will not let it die
The heartbeat of hope
I will not let it die
It's keeping faith alive
It's the heartbeat of hope

Keep it alive
The heartbeat of hope
I will not let it die
No, I will not let it die

Keep it alive
Keep alive
The heartbeat of hope
