A lamp in the night,
a song in time of sorrow;
A great glad hope which
faith can ever borrow
To gild the passing day,
with the glory of the morrow,
Is the hope of
the coming of the Lord.
Bless�d hope, bless�d hope,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord;
How the aching heart it cheers,
How it glistens through our tears,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord.
A star in the sky,
a beacon bright to guide us;
An anchor sure to hold
when storms betide us;
A refuge for the soul,
where in quiet we may hide us,
Is the hope of
the coming of the Lord.
Bless�d hope, bless�d hope,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord;
How the aching heart it cheers,
How it glistens through our tears,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord.
A call of command,
like trumpet clearly sounding,
To make us bold
when evil is surrounding;
To stir the sluggish heart
and to keep in good abounding,
Is the hope of t
he coming of the Lord.
Bless�d hope, bless�d hope,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord;
How the aching heart it cheers,
How it glistens through our tears,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord.
A word from the One
to all our hearts the dearest,
A parting word to
make Him aye the nearest;
Of all His precious words,
the sweetest, brightest, clearest,
Is the hope of
the coming of the Lord.
Bless�d hope, bless�d hope,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord;
How the aching heart it cheers,
How it glistens through our tears,
Bless�d hope of
the coming of the Lord.
