THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE
WHICH GOD PROMISED BEFORE TIME.
LIVING WITHOUT ANY STRIFE
ONLY LOVE, NO HATE OR CRIME.

THIS IS OUR GREAT CHRISTIAN HOPE
AND ON IT WE DO RELY.
BECAUSE OF IT WE CAN COPE
FOR WE KNOW GOD DOES NOT LIE.

CHORUS

HOW WE PRAISE YOU FOR YOUR PROMISE
OF ETERNAL LIFE IN CHRIST.
EVEN THE MOST DOUBTING THOMAS
WILL BY THIS HOPE BE ENTICED.

II
FAITH AND KNOWLEDGE REST ON IT
HOPE IS THE GREAT FOUNDATION.
IN GODLINESS WE ARE KNIT
BY THIS THREAD OF SALVATION.

AT THE APPOINTED SEASON
GOD BROUGHT THIS GOOD WORD TO LIGHT.
NOW THERE'S NEVER A REASON
FOR GOD'S CHILD TO FEAR THE NIGHT.
