WHISPERING HOPE
Septimus Winner
1.
Soft as the voice of an angel,
Breathing a lesson unheard,
Hope with a gentle persuasion,
Whispers her comforting word:
Wait till the darkness is over,
Wait till the tempest is done.
Hope for the sunshine tomorrow,
After the shower is gone.
Whispering Hope,
oh how welcome thy voice,
Making my heart,
in its sorrow rejoice.
Whispering Hope,
oh how welcome thy voice,
Making my heart,
In its sorrow rejoice.
2.
If, in the dusk of the twilight,
Dim be the region afar,
Will not the deepening darkness,
Brighten the glimmering star?
Then when the night is upon us,
Why should the heart sink away,
When the dark midnight is over,
Watch for the breaking of day.
Whispering Hope,
oh how welcome thy voice,
Making my heart,
in its sorrow rejoice.
Whispering Hope,
oh how welcome thy voice,
Making my heart,
In its sorrow rejoice.
