Chicago Grace Notes - Eternal Light of Hope Lyrics

In the shadows of the city Rome
Where the ancient hearts had made their home
Lost in tales of endless plight and woe
Found a truth that they would come to know
Grace and love come down to lift them high
In the words of Paul, they found their why
God of Hope, fill us with your light
Joy and peace in believing, make us right
From despair to where Your blessings flow
Let us hold the hope that You bestow
Through the streets where whispers bred disdain
Hope was deemed the heart's elusive strain
Yet in faith, they saw a vibrant sight
A future where their hearts could take flight
Paul proclaimed with fervor, pure and clear
Hope transcends, it conquers every fear
God of Hope, fill us with your light
Joy and peace in believing, make us right
From despair to where Your blessings flow
Let us hold the hope that You bestow
Oh, the joy, unshakable and full
In our trials, our hearts He will pull
Through the storms, His promises remain
Peace in faith, where love and hope sustain
God of Hope fill hope sustain
God of Hope, fill us with your light
Joy and peace in believing, make us right
From despair to where Your blessings flow
Let us hold the hope that You bestow
In the whispers of the Roman night
Stand we now, in His eternal light
Filled with hope that dances through the dark
In every soul, it leaves its sacred mark
