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