With the heart and intention of the organization, Hopeland in mind, violinist Tim Fain and singer-songwriter, Ryan O'Neal (Sleeping At Last) came together to write a song. After a few days together in Chicago, the first draft of "Hope" was written, a song inspired by the strength of vulnerable children in both the foster care system and orphanages around the world.

In support of the incredible "Orphan Myth" campaign, Tim Fain and Sleeping At Last came together virtually and completed the recording of "Hope" to make it available in this urgent call to action to help bring 100% of children into a safe and loving family. Even Tim and Ryan’s young daughters lent their voices to the song, as well as to the song’s artwork.

"Hope" is an anthem for the vulnerable.
lyrics
There is hope in our eyes
When we truly see each other.
Like the light of countless stars,
We are not afraid of the dark.

‘Cause there is hope in our hearts.
In every single beat, we feel it.
To the ends of the earth,
Our echo carries on...

We are sacred, we are strong.
We are beautiful. We belong.
Please hear our unheard song.

There is hope in our voice
When we listen to each other.
Our barriers disappear
With every story told.

We are sacred, we strong.
We are beautiful. We belong.
Please hear our unheard song.

There is hope in our eyes
When we truly see each other,
So we raise our flag, lift our voice!

(This is our hopeland)
We are sacred, we strong.
(This is our hopeland)
We are beautiful. We belong.
(This is our hopeland)
We are worthy, we are true.
(This is our hopeland)
There are no borders from this view,
Please help us raise our flag.

There is hope in our eyes
When we truly see each other.

Hope

// LYRICS //

The choice is made
Give it all to live in give and take
Bound to be a mess
I’m fairly certain
But are you ever lost
if you follow your heart
You say
Called away
Find the best in every
Move we make
Bound to be a mess
I’m really certain
But you will never know
Until you follow your heart
You say

For the first time
From the bird’s eye
Coming into view
It changes everything
From the coastline
With a sure sign
Caution to the wind
You hear in front of me loudly
Ooh
I’ve never wanted anything more
Ooh
Cause for the first time
I found something that will last

But if lines fade
Staring down the face of give and take
Bound to leave a mess
I’m fairly certain
You never really know
Until its falling apart
They say
Miles away
Made the best of every
Move we’ve made
Bound to see the rest foolishly certain
And we’ll always know when we are following heart
We’ll say

For the first time
From the bird’s eye
Coming into view
It changes everything
From the coastline
With a sure sign
Caution to the wind
You hear in front of me loudly
Ooh
I’ve never wanted anything more
Ooh
Cause for the first time
I found something that will last
Ooh
I’ve never wanted anything more
Ooh
Cause for the first time
I found something that will last
I found something that will last
I found something

One day
And one step further
One day
And one step further
One day at a time
You’ll see one day
(and one step further)
We’ll know one day
(and one step further)
One day
(and one step further)

For the first time
From the bird’s eye
Coming into view
It changes everything
From the coastline
With a sure sign
Caution to the wind
You hear in front of me loudly
Ooh
I’ve never wanted anything more
Ooh
Cause for the first time
I found something that will last
Ooh
I’ve never wanted anything more
Ooh
Cause for the first time
I found something that will last

For the First Time

Inception Time X Twilight Turning Page [3:21] | Wedding Mashup

Twilight - Turning Page [3:31] | Bridal Wedding March Version

The acoustic backing track specialists providing pro tracks for singers, recording artists and musicians. Perfect for weddings, events, social media posts and more

With his adventuresome spirit and vast musical gifts, violinist Tim Fain has emerged as a mesmerizing new presence on the music scene.  The “charismatic young violinist with a matinee idol profile, strong musical instincts, and first rate chops” (Boston Globe) was most recently seen on screen and heard on the soundtrack of the new hit film Black Swan, and heard as the sound of Richard Gere’s violin in Fox Searchlight’s feature film Bee Season. Selected as one of Symphony and Strad magazines’ “Up-and-Coming Musicians,” Fain captured the Avery Fisher Career Grant  and a Young Concert Artists International Award.  As The Washington Post recently raved, “Fain has everything he needs for a first-rate career.”

He electrified audiences at debuts with the Baltimore Symphony with conductor Marin Alsop, at Lincoln Center’s Mostly Mozart Festival and with the Orchestra of St. Luke’s.  He has also appeared with the Mexico City and Oxford (UK) Symphonies, Cincinnati Chamber Symphony, Brooklyn and Hague Philharmonics, and the Curtis Symphony Orchestra in a special performance at Philadelphia’s Kimmel Center.  In addition, he was the featured soloist with the Philip Glass Ensemble at Carnegie Hall in a concert version of Einstein on the Beach and continues to tour the US and Europe in a duo-recital program with Phillip Glass.

Fain appeared in recital at the Ravinia Festival, Amsterdam’s venerable Concertgebouw, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, the Kennedy Center Mexico’s Festival de Musica de Camara in San Miguel de Allende, Carnegie’s Weill Hall, California’s Carmel Mozart Society, University of Georgia, Boston’s Ives and Ringling International Festivals, San Diego Art Institute, University of California at Davis, Alice Tully Hall, the 92nd St Y, and elsewhere across the globe. His multi-media evening Portals premiered to sold-out audiences in New York, Los Angeles and at its midwestern premiere at Omaha’s KANEKO. The centerpiece of the evening is Partita for solo violin, a new work written especially for him by Philip Glass, and also features collaborations with Benjamin Millepied, Leonard Cohen, film maker Kate Hackett, and with radio personality Fred Child and pianist Nicholas Brittel appearing on screen.  

A dynamic and compelling performer in traditional works, he is also a fervent champion of 20th and 21st century composers, with a repertoire ranging widely from Beethoven and Tchaikovsky to Aaron Jay Kernis and John Corigliano; as the Los Angeles Times recently noted, his career “is based, in part, on new music and new ways of thinking about classical music.“  His provocative debut CD Arches, music for solo violin, reflects Fain’s inquisitive passion and intellect, combining old and new solo works by J.S. Bach, Fritz Kreisler, Kevin Puts, Mark O’Connor, Daniel Ott, and Randy Woolf. His new disc, River of Light (Naxos), brings the tradition of the virtuosic short piece into the present, with short works by living American composers.

He has collaborated with such luminaries as Pinchas Zukerman, Richard Goode, Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Jonathan Biss, has appeared with the Mark Morris Dance Group, Seán Curran Company, and Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company, and appeared onstage with the New York City Ballet, performing alongside the dancers in the acclaimed premiere of Benjamin Millepied’s “Double Aria." He has also worked with jazz pianists Billy Childs and Ethan Iverson (The Bad Plus), guitarist Rich Robinson (Black Crowes), and appeared at Jazz at Lincoln Center with singer-songwriter Rob Thomas (Matchbox 20). 

A sought-after chamber musician, Fain has performed at the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center, New York’s Bargemusic, Chamber Music Northwest, and the Spoleto (Italy), Bridgehampton, Santa Fe, Caramoor, Bard, Lucerne (Switzerland), “Bravo” Vail Valley, Moab, and Martha’s Vineyard Festivals. He has toured nationally with Musicians from Marlboro, and was first violinist of the Rossetti String Quartet. 

A native of Santa Monica, California, Tim Fain is a graduate of The Curtis Institute of Music, in Philadelphia, where he studied with Victor Danchenko, and The Juilliard School, where he worked with Robert Mann.  He performs on a violin made by Franceso Gobetti, Venice 1717, the “Moller,” on extended loan from Clement and Karen Arrison through the generous efforts of the Stradivari Society of Chicago.
