Whispering Hope

Author: G. W. Lyon Hymnal: The New Wonderful Songs for Work and Worship #103 (1938) First Line: There's light in the valley of shadows Refrain First Line: Then whispering hope Lyrics: 1 There's light in the valley of shadows, No longer the darkness I fear; For Jesus is reigning in Glory, My strength and my light ever near. Chorus: Then whispering hope, O how gentle thy voice; Making my heart In its sorrow rejoice. 2 There's hope for the sad and despondent, Who suffer in silence alone; Amid their bereavements and sorrow, O'ercome by the weight of their gloom. [Chorus] 3 There's joy for the wayward and lonely, Afar from their own native place; A home and a welcome are waiting, A father with sweet smiling face. [Chorus] 4 There's comfort and help for the dying, A rod and a staff for the way; A Guide who securely will lead them To realms of an uncloudy day. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [There's light in the valley of shadows]
