Hope to Carry On Lyrics

I can see Jesus hanging on the cross
I can see Jesus hanging on the cross
I can see Jesus hanging on the cross
He came looking for the lost

CHORUS:
And love has come
Love has come
Love has come
And He's given me hope to carry on

I can hear Jesus saying Father forgive
I can hear Jesus saying Father forgive
I can hear Jesus saying Father forgive
What a thing He did

CHORUS

And I can see love
Love is all I want to see
Love could make a beggar rich
He could set a prisoner free
I know He could do it for you
God knows He did it for me

And I can see love
Love is all I want to show you
Love
Love's the only way to go
Love
Love is all a man might need to know
This I know

You know Peter put away his sword
I can see Peter, he's putting away his sword
I can see Peter, he put away his sword
He won't fight no more

CHORUS

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
