Whispering Hope

[00:00.27] Soft as the voice of an angel, breathing a lesson unheard
[00:13.65] Hope with a gentle persuasion whispers her comforting word
[00:27.27] Wait till the darkness is over, wait till the tempest is gone
[00:41.02] Hope for the sunshine tomorrow, after the shower is gone
[00:55.06] Whispering hope (whispering hope) whispering hope
[01:00.78] Oh how welcome thy voice (how welcome thy voice)
[01:08.36] Making my heart (making my heart) making my heart in its sorrow rejoice
[01:23.16] Whispering hope (whispering hope) whispering hope
[01:29.14] Oh how welcome thy voice (how welcome thy voice)
[01:36.65] Making my heart (making my heart) making my heart in its sorrow rejoice (in its sorrow rejoice)
[01:55.00] For 30 year, I've lived next door to this little black church
[01:58.98] And every winter night
[02:00.75] In every sun in morning that I'm home
[02:02.49] I sneak up in the wood above my house
[02:04.23] And listening to them say
[02:05.98] Boy you talk about the lesson
[02:07.71] I just love to hear them say
[02:10.06] Hey you come up my brother nail
[02:12.96] Hey what'cha you doing?
[02:14.36] What are you doing out here?
[02:16.03] Well I just came to listen to you sing
[02:27.36]
