‘Don’t give up hope’

Even when fear, doubt, or darkness seems overwhelming, we can trust in God, good, to lead us forward and bring peace, as this hymn verse highlights.

Longing heart, don’t give up hope
When threats of evil overwhelm.
Love now keeps Her promise true,
God’s sure hand is at the helm.
Bringing joy when all seems darkness –
God will keep you safe, secure.
You go forward, loved and peaceful:
Victory is always sure.
