Verse 
F/A        C         Dm7       C     Fsus2 F 
There is a hope that burns within my heart, 
              Dm           C     F       G 
That gives me strength for every passing day; 
  F/A    G/B  C     F              F   G  C 
A glimpse of glory now revealed in meagre part, 
    C/E        F     G 
Yet drives all doubt away: 
  Am       G            F    C 
I stand in Christ, with sins forgiven; 
    Dm        E       Am   G  C 
And Christ in me, the hope of heaven! 
   C/E     F              C/E  E  Am 
My highest calling and my deepest joy, 
F6 C        G7      C 
To make His will my home. 


Verse 
F/A        C         Dm7       C     Fsus2 F 
There is a hope that lifts my weary head, 
              Dm           C     F       G 
A consolation strong against despair, 
  F/A    G/B  C     F              F   G  C 
That when the world has plunged me in its deepest pit, 
    C/E        F     G 
I find the Saviour there! 
  Am       G            F    C 
Through present sufferings, future's fear, 
    Dm        E       Am   G  C 
He whispers 'courage' in my ear. 
   C/E     F              C/E  E  Am 
For I am safe in everlasting arms, 
F6 C        G7      C 
And they will lead me home.

There is a hope that stands the test of time, 
              Dm           C     F       G 
That lifts my eyes beyond the beckoning grave, 
  F/A    G/B  C     F              F   G  C 
To see the matchless beauty of a day divine 
    C/E        F     G 
When I behold His face! 
  Am       G            F    C 
When sufferings cease and sorrows die, 
    Dm        E       Am   G  C 
And every longing satisfied.

Then joy unspeakable will flood my soul, 
F6 C        G7      C 
For I am truly home
