My hope is in you.

That perches on the soul,
And sings the tune – without the words –
And never stops at all.

To the soul who seeks Him.
It is good that one should hope and wait quietly
For the salvation of the Lord.

Return to the stronghold,
You prisoners of hope.
Even today I declare
That I will restore double to you.

When the walls fall all around you
When your hope has turned to dust
Let the sound of love surround you
Beat like a heart in each of us

My hope and treasure lies above.

But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.

This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both firm and steadfast.

Enough to fill the present day with joy,
And overspread the future years with hope.
