A very good friend of ours just suffered a cardiac arrest. She was resuscitated, but has been in a coma for days now. We are very, very sad. Here is "Hope Dies Last."

Hope Dies Last

[Verse]
A friend so dear, like family she was
She gave her all, expected no applause
She always put others before her own
Carried burdens she never showed

[Chorus]
Hope dies last, it lingers in the air
In the love she gave, in the lives that care
Through the silence, through shadows cast
We hold her close, 'cause hope dies last

[Verse]
Her heart was open, though the world was cold
A gentle soul, yet endlessly bold
She stood by us through joy and strife
And forgot herself along the way of life

[Chorus]
Hope dies last, it lingers in the air
In the love she gave, in the lives that care
Through the silence, through shadows cast
We hold her close, 'cause hope dies last

[Bridge]
If she dreams now, may the skies be kind
May she find the peace she sought to find
And if she wakes, we'll be here, steadfast
Holding her hand, 'cause hope dies last

[Final chorus]
Hope dies last, it lingers in the air
In the love she gave, in the lives that care
Through the silence, through shadows cast
We hold her close, 'cause hope dies last


[Soft outro]
We hold her close, 'cause hope dies last
