Whispering Hope

Whispering Hope

-Jim Reeves

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 darkness is gone

Whispering hope

oh how welcome thy voice

making my heart

in its sorrow rejoice

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

any sorrow rejoice
