Our hope is in the Lord!! :)

God hath not promised skies always blue,
Flower-strewn pathways all our lives through.
God hath not promised sun without rain,
Joy without sorrow, peace without pain.

But God hath promised strength for the day
Rest for the labour, light for the way
Grace for the trials, help from above
Unfailing kindness, undying love.

God hath not promised we shall not know,
Toils and temptations, trouble and woes;
He hath not told us we shall not bear
Many a burden, many a care.

But God hath promised strength for the day
Rest for the labour, light for the way
Grace for the trials, help from above
Unfailing kindness, undying love.

God hath not promised smooth roads and wide
Swift, easy travel, needing no guide;
Never a mountain, rocky and steep,
Never a river, turbid and deep.
