Whispering Hope

1 There's light in the valley of shadows,
No longer the darkness I fear;
For Jesus is reigning in Glory,
My strength and my light ever near.

Chorus:
Then whispering hope,
O how gentle thy voice;
Making my heart
In its sorrow rejoice.

2 There's hope for the sad and despondent,
Who suffer in silence alone;
Amid their bereavements and sorrow,
O'ercome by the weight of their gloom. [Chorus]

3 There's joy for the wayward and lonely,
Afar from their own native place;
A home and a welcome are waiting,
A father with sweet smiling face. [Chorus]

4 There's comfort and help for the dying,
A rod and a staff for the way;
A Guide who securely will lead them
To realms of an uncloudy day. [Chorus]
