I Hope He Understands - Regina Belle

I looked into the dark and thought I saw a light

Then I heard a voice

Was it in my mind?

Sometimes I can’t be sure of what I see in him

Sometimes I lose my way, I get down and pray, and ask him for his strength

I hope he understands

Sometimes I can’t go on, living gets so tough

I gave it all I had, that was not enough

Impossibility are all I ever see

And I become so weak I can’t even speak, then I need his strength

I hope he understands

I hope he understands just how hard I tried

Put my trust in him I hope he understands

I hope he understands, I hope he understands its just me

So I go on each day, do my very best

Deeds and time will tell

If I have met his test

I’ll meet him at the gate and if he shakes my hand

I’ll thank him for his help, I was not alone, always used his strength

I know he understands

I know he understands just how hard I tried, I put my trust in him

I hope he understands, hope he understands, I hope he understands its just me

So I go on each day, do my very best

Deeds and time will tell

If I have met his test

I’ll meet him at the gate and if he shakes my hand

I’ll thank him for his help, I was not alone, always used his strength

I know he understands
