379: There Is a Blessed Hope
Verse 1
There is a blessed hope,
More precious and more bright
Than all the joyless mockery
The world esteems delight.
Verse 2
There is a lovely star
That lights the darkest gloom,
And sheds a peaceful radiance o'er
The prospects of the tomb.
Verse 3
There is a cheering voice
That lifts the soul above,
Dispels the painful, anxious doubt,
And whispers, "God is love,"
Verse 4
That voice from Calvary's height
Proclaims the forgiven;
That star is revelation's light,
That hope, the hope of heaven.
