My hope is in the lord

Be still my soul, for the best is yet to come
Though the earth below is shaking
And I struggle to hold on
To anything that isn't bolted down
Watching my whole world shatter on the ground
And I find that I am safe and sound
My hope is in the Lord

And I am blessed beyond compare
To find my joy in things that last
Finding peace in who I am
Rather than my circumstance
I'd rather hear one simple phrase
From my Father's loving voice
Than to hear the praise of strangers
My hope is in the Lord

Be calm and wait, for your future is secure
And though this flesh be broken
Your spirit will endure
For the battle is not with skin and bone
And though we own the world, we are beggars all
And I hear the voice of Jesus call
Our hope is in the Lord

And I am blessed beyond compare
To find my joy in things that last
Finding peace in who I am
Rather than my circumstance
I'd rather hear one simple phrase
From my Father's loving voice
Than to hear the praise of strangers
My hope is in the Lord

So come and rest in the promise of His grace
That we are all just travelers
And our destination waits
For the pain you feel is temporary
Victims all of the ordinary
But God is offering sanctuary
Our hope is in the Lord

And oh, I am blessed beyond compare
To find my joy in things that last
Finding peace in who I am
Rather than my circumstance
I'd rather hear one simple phrase
From my Father's loving voice
Than to hear the praise of strangers
My hope is in the Lord

Oh, I'd rather hear one simple phrase
From my Father's loving voice
Than to hear the praise of strangers
My hope is in the Lord
Than to hear the praise of strangers
My hope is in the Lord
