Our Hope Endures

This song, Our Hope Endures, by Natalie Grant, has blessed me and spoken to me in many ways. I hope it will do the same for you. If you scroll down to the bottom of the page, there is a link to hear the song.
You would think only so much can go wrong

Calamity only strikes once

And you assume that this one has suffered her share

Life will be kinder from here


Sometimes the sun stays hidden for years

Sometimes the sky rains night after night

When will it clear

But our hope endures the worst of conditions

It's more than our optimism

Let the earth quake

Our hope is unchanged


How do we comprehend peace within pain

Our joy at a good man's wake

Walk a mile with a woman whose body is torn

With illness but she marches on


Sometimes the sun stays hidden for years

Sometimes the sky rains night after night

When will it clear

But our hope endures the worst of conditions

It's more than our optimism

Let the earth quake

Our hope is unchanged


Emanuel, God is with us El Shaddai, all sufficient

Emanuel, God is with us El Shaddai, all sufficient

Emanuel, God is with us El Shaddai, all sufficient

We never walk alone


This is our hope Our hope endures, the worst of conditions

It's more than our optimism let the earth quake let the earth quake let the earth quake

Our hope is unchanged
