WHISPERING HOPE - MCCELLAND

Like the faint dawn of the morning,

Like the sweet freshness of dew,

Comes the dear whisper of Jesus,

Comforting, tender and true.

Darkness gives way to the sunlight,

While His voice falls on my ear;

Seasons of heaven’s refreshing,

Call to new gladness and cheer.

J. I. McClelland (early 20th century)

WHISPERING HOPE - MCCELLAND

Singing the song of forgiveness,

Softly I hear in my soul,

Jesus has conquered forever

Sin with its fearful control.

Whispering courage for warfare,

Bending Thine ear when I pray;

Glorious, risen Redeemer,

O how I praise Thee today!

J. I. McClelland (early 20th century)

WHISPERING HOPE - MCCELLAND

Hope is an anchor to keep us,

Holding both steadfast and sure;

Hope brings a wonderful cleansing,

Thro’ His blood, making us pure.

Whispering hope of His coming,

How my heart thrills at His Word!

O to be watching and waiting,

Ready to welcome the Lord!
