First Line: Hope on, hope on, O troubled heart ,

Hope on, hope on, O troubled heart !
If doubts and fears o'ertake thee,
Remember this-----the Lord hath said,
He never will forsake thee.
Then murmur not, still bear thy lot,
Nor yield to care or sorrow;
Be sure the clouds that frown to-day
Will break in smiles to-morrow.

2 Hope on, hope on ! though dark and deep
The shadows gather o'er thee;
Be not dismayed : thy Saviour holds
The Lamp of Life before thee.
And if He will that thou to-day
Shouldst tread the vale of sorrow,
Be not afraid ; but trust and wait-----
The sun will shine to-morrow.

3 Hope on, hope on ! go bravely forth,
Through trial and temptation;
Directed by the Word of truth,
So full of consolation.
There is a calm for every storm ;
A joy for every sorrow ;
A night from which the soul shall wake
To hail an endless morrow.
