[Verse]
G C G Am D G
Soft as the voice of an angel, breathing a lesson unheard
G C G D G
Hope with a gentle persuasion, whispers her comforting word
G G Am D
Wait till the darkness is over, wait till the tempest is done
G C G G D G
Hope for the sunshine tomorrow, after the darkness is gone
[Chorus]
D G D G
Whispering hope oh how welcome Thy voice
C G D G
Making my heart in it's sorrow rejoice
[Verse]
G C G Am D G
If in the dusk of the twilight, dim be the region afar
G C G D G
Will not the deepening darkness, brighten the glimmering star
G G Am D
Then when the night is upon us, why should the heart sink away
G C G G D G
When the dark midnight is over, watch for the breaking of day
[Chorus]
D G D G
Whispering hope oh how welcome Thy voice
C G D G
Making my heart any sorrow rejoice
