Whispering Hope

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 gone
 Hope for the sunshine tomorrow, after the shower is gone
 Whispering hope (whispering hope) whispering hope
 Oh how welcome thy voice (how welcome thy voice)
 Making my heart (making my heart) making my heart in its sorrow rejoice
 Whispering hope (whispering hope) whispering hope
 Oh how welcome thy voice (how welcome thy voice)
 Making my heart (making my heart) making my heart in its sorrow rejoice (in its sorrow rejoice)

 For 30 year, I've lived next door to this little black church
 And every winter night
 In every sun in morning that I'm home
 I sneak up in the wood above my house
 And listening to them say
 Boy you talk about the lesson
 I just love to hear them say
 Hey you come up my brother nail
 Hey what'cha you doing?
 What are you doing out here?
 Well I just came to listen to you sing
