Soft as the voice of an angel breathing a lesson
unheard
Hope with a gentle persuasion whispers a 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 any sorrow rejoice
If in the dusk of the twilight dimmed be the region
afar

Will not the deepening darkness writin' the glittering
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
