Amidst the chaos and the strife,

The world's a battlefield, of life,

With shattered dreams and broken hearts,

The search for hope, a vital part.

And in the midst of all the pain,

A fragrance fills the air again,

A scent that lifts the heavy load,

And gives the weary heart a road.

The fragrance of hope, it fills the air,

A sweet aroma, beyond compare,

It whispers softly, in the breeze,

And brings a calmness, to the seas.

It's in the blooming of the flowers,

And in the passing of the hours,

It's in the sunrise, and the night,

And in the stars that shine so bright.

It's in the laughter of a child,

And in the beauty of the wild,

It's in the kindness of a friend,

And in the love that never ends.

The fragrance of hope, it's all around,

A treasure that can always be found,

It's in the words that lift us up,

And in the hands that hold the cup.

It's in the music that we hear,

And in the beauty that's so near,

It's in the colors of the sky,

And in the birds that freely fly.

The fragrance of hope, it fills our soul,

And gives us strength to reach our goal,

It whispers softly, in our ear,

And chases away our every fear.

It's in the moments of our life,

And in the struggles, and the strife,

It's in the tears that we shed,

And in the prayers that we have said.

The fragrance of hope, it never dies,

It's always there, before our eyes,

It's in the stories that we tell,

And in the memories that we hold so well.

It's in the way we see the world,

And in the way our hearts unfurl,

It's in the joy that we can find,

And in the peace that's in our mind.

The fragrance of hope, it's all we need,

To plant the seed and watch it feed,

It's in the faith that we possess,

And in the hope that we profess.

So let us breathe the fragrance in,

And let it fill us to the brim,

For in this world of pain and fear,

The fragrance of hope, it's always near.
