My hope is not in this life.
Nor this passing world's reward.
But my hope is in a life
that will never fade.
My hope is in You, Jesus.
Risen King, ascended Lord.
Even death itself could not
hold You in the grave.

        And Jesus, You've gone before us.
        And Your faithfulness never fails.
        In the darkness You reassure us.
        You're our anchor beyond the veil.

When the storm is raging
and I'm battered by the waves.
You're my refuge and my strength.
I shall not be moved.
And when the night surrounds me
and I cannot see my way.
You will guide me in Your
righteousness and Your truth.

And though we cannot see You.
We await that glorious hour.
When this earthly veil
is finally stripped away.
And when we hear the trumpet
and You come with awesome power.
We shall gaze upon the radiance
of Your face.
