Hope's Anthem written by William Matthews & Christa Black (Key: B)
He's awakening the hope in me
By calling forth my destiny
He's breathing life into my soul
I will thirst for Him, and him alone
He has come like the rain
That showers on the barren plain
So my heart and tongue confess
Jesus Christ, the hope of man
My hope is in you, God
I am steadfast, I will not be moved
I'm anchored, never shaken
All my hope is in you
He's bringing hope to the hopeless
And giving his heart to the broken
And sharing his home with the orphan
He is the joy, He is my joy
He is the hope of the nations
The Father's heart we're embracing
He is the song we're declaring
He is the joy, He is my joy
You're bringing hope to the hopeless
And giving your heart to the broken
And sharing your home with the orphan
You are the joy, You are my joy
You are the hope of the nations
The Father's heart we're embracing
You are the song we're declaring
You are the joy, You are my joy
Why so downcast oh, oh my soul
Put your hope in God alone
God calls things that are not as though they are- and we are to be like Him! Our words have His power. When we declare that are hope is in HIM it has power to change our lives! When we worship and sing out "HE is my joy and my hope" HE builds that in us as we sing! Cry it out, sing it out- HE is our hope! It will change your life.
