There is Hope (Siri's Song)

There is Hope
w/m Bill & Karen Itzel

She was born into a world with fewer chances
First days of her life were spent alone
So little, you could hold her in the palm of your hand
The seeds of desperation now were sown

No one there to love, no one to hold her
A story told so many times before
A tale that often ends too sad and too soon
A broken life, shattered on the floor

Pre-chorus
But the mercy of the Lord is never-ending
God had a plan before her life was made
In grace, her story written by the hand of God
Each day, the love of God displayed

Chorus
There is hope
There is life
In her smile I see the love of Jesus Christ
There is joy
There is peace
When I hold the little girl God gave to me
There is hope

She came into our family through adoption
The same way I was rescued from the curse
Now she’ll know the joy of unconditional love
But she’ll also know that I was not the first
