[Verse 1] When the stairwell tilts beneath your feet, And every plan comes loose, Take one breath; then take the next, There’s still a way to choose. [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to see the summit, Just the step that’s near; There’s a hand inside your own now, There’s a reason to stay here. [Chorus] We can rise while the ground is moving, We can lean and still stand tall. Hope is more than waiting for it— It’s the spark we pass through all. When the hard days crowd around us, We become the answer, too: I’ll keep hold of what is possible, And I’ll make it through with you. [Verse 2] Let the doubt say what it wants to, Let it rattle every frame; We have crossed the broken bridges, We have learned to speak our names. [Pre-Chorus] Not a promise without trouble, Not a road that never bends; Just a stubborn little courage That gets up and tries again. [Chorus] We can rise while the ground is moving, We can lean and still stand tall. Hope is more than waiting for it— It’s the spark we pass through all. When the hard days crowd around us, We become the answer, too: I’ll keep hold of what is possible, And I’ll make it through with you. [Bridge] One voice, then another, One step, then two; The future isn’t finished— There’s work for us to do. [Final Chorus] We can rise while the ground is moving, We can lean and still stand tall. Hope is more than waiting for it— It’s the spark we pass through all. When the hard days crowd around us, We become the answer, too: I’ll keep hold of what is possible, And I’ll make it through with you.
