Steven Curtis Chapman - With Hope
That is not at all how
We thought it was supposed to be
We had so many plans for you
We had so many dreams
And now you've gone away
And left us with the memories of your smile
And nothing we can say
And nothing we can do
Can take away the pain
The pain of losing you
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end
We can grieve with hope
Because we believe with hope
There's a place where we'll see your face again
We'll see your face again
Never have I known
Anything so hard to understand
Never have I questioned more
The wisdom of God's plan
But through the cloud of tears
I see the Father smile and say well done
And I imagine you
Where you wanted most to be
Seeing all your dreams come true
'Cause now you're home and now you're free
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end
We can grieve with hope
Because we believe with hope
There's a place where we'll see your face again
We'll see your face again
We have this hope like an anchor
'Cause we believe that everything God promised us is true
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end
We can grieve with hope
Because we believe with hope
There's a place
By God's grace
There's a place where we'll see your face again
