Lyrics With Hope - Steven Curtis Chapman

With Hope

This 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, but …
We can cry with hope
We can say goodbye with hope
'Cause we know our goodbye is not the end, oh no And we can grieve with hope
'Cause we believe with hope
(There's a place by God’s grace)
There’s a place where we’ll see your face again
We’ll see your face again
And never have I known
Anything so hard to understand
And never have I questioned more
The wisdom of God’s plan
But through the cloud of tears
I see the Father’s smile and say well done
And I imagine you
Where you wanted most to be
