"Hope Is Marching On" lyrics - MATT REDMAN

Long can be the night of our struggle
Deep can be the wounds of this life
But hope lives on in spite of our trials
And these soon shall pass
Yes, these soon shall pass

[Chorus 1:]
You take the world off my shoulders
The weight of it all off my shoulders
You breathe Your hope, You watch over
And You take the world, all the weight of this world

There are times of tears and of trouble
We wander through the darkness of night
But hope will shine inside of this battle
And this too shall pass
Yes, this too shall pass
But until it does

[Chorus 1:]
You take the world off my shoulders
The weight of it all off my shoulders
You breathe Your hope, You watch over
And You take the world, all the weight of this world

[Post-Chorus:]
You take the weight
You take the weight
You take the weight

[Bridge:]
And Your love, it keeps on lifting me
And Your hope is marching on
And Your mercy surely carries me
And Your hope is marching on
And Your love, it keeps on lifting me
Oh and Your hope is marching on
And Your mercy surely carries me
And Your hope is marching on

[Chorus 2:]
You take the world off my shoulders
Oh the weight of it all off my shoulders
Jesus, You breathe Your hope, You watch over
Oh and You take the world, all the weight of this world
Oh the weight of this world
