Hope Rising

Hope rising
Like a new born baby
Coming out of her mothers womb

Hope rising
 like a seedling
Sprouting forth to germinate

Hope rising
Like the empty minded
To be filled

Hope rising
For the barren woman
For they shall have more
Children than the children
Of the desolate woman

Hope rising 
For the wombless
Because God has spare wombs in heaven


Hope rising
That the sick
Will be made whole

Hope rising
For the sinner
Who forsakes his sins
And thirst after righteousness

Hope rising
For the weak
For he hath
Been made strong

Hope rising
For the sinners
For they have the chance
To still make amends

Hope rising
For those who tenaciously cling
In their tribulations
For they shall overcome

Hope rising 
For those who steadfastly
 serve him
For their reward
is plentious in heaven

Hope rising
For those who overcome
Temptations...
To make their hope
Rising-falling
Falling falling
But falling-rising tune
And rising till death closes their eyes



Hope rising
For the dead
For they shall behold
The Glory of God
First...

Hope rising
That God...
Shall wipe away 
every tears
From our eyes

Hope rising
That we are hopefully hopeful
That we have a place
Specially prepared for us
By the father of hope
