life with its ups and downs,
with hope, they say,
a dream with a dim light,
with hope, they say,
a land of barren soil
with hope, they say,

with hope,
we keep striving for a better future,
enduring the pangs of struggle,
climbing the stairs of success with unsteady feet,
in profusely sweat of hunger,
with hope...

God bless America, it's not just a word of mouth,
nor is it an utterance...
