Intro verse 1 People waiting for some kind of sign from above Lost in the shadows of doubt, need a message of love Nothing is certain in uncertain times Hard to see beyond the greed and the crime Oh, the faithful refuse to give up Homeless and hungry survive just enough Learn to smile through it all They are blessed from above Never stop believing change will come There's a city of hope beyond our fears Where miracles happen Where truth can be heard Do you want to go to the city of hope Verse Founded on faith Connecting us all A network of love to answer the call Yeah, that's where I am from The city of hope verse 2 On the edge of the world, across oceans of blue It's a place where a dream has a chance to come true Do not be fooled by illusions, or falling from grace Make your own destiny, find your own place Where the streets speak the lessons of trouble, hope and pain Never stop believing change will come There's a city of hope beyond our fears Where miracles happen Where truth can be heard Do you want to go to the city of hope Founded on faith Connecting us all A network of love to answer the call Yeah, that's where I am from The city of hope I hear them whisper, sending a prayer A cry to the spirit where they no longer wonder Instrumental Never stop believing change will come There's a city of hope beyond our fears Where miracles happen Where truth can be heard Do you want to go to the city of hope
