Surrounded by the darkness with nowhere else to turn
and left alone to be a victim of the night.
Then from out of nowhere someone comes along
and with a loving hand they lead us to the light.
    Blossoms of hope grow side by side,
    friends help us cope till fears run and hide.
    Energy flows with the love that's inside
    those blossoms of hope.
Exhausted by the journey with nothing left to give
and unprepared to face the danger yet to come.
Then the voice of courage softly settles in
and all at once we find the strength to carry on.
    Blossoms of hope grow side by side,
    friends help us cope till fears run and hide.
    Energy flows with the love that's inside
    those blossoms of hope.
