OUR HOPE, OUR LIFE, OUR LORD

Our Hope, Our Life, Our Lord,
We once were dead in sin,
While Satan reigned within;
Since only Christ could cope
With all our needs, record
He only is our Hope.

Our Life, our Lord, our Hope,
We own that Thou art great,
The One whom we await,
Who, as above earth’s strife,
Sets heaven in our scope
And hast become our Life.

Our Lord, our Hope, our Life,
Soon Thou wilt have Thy bride
In splendour at Thy side:
Now Thou hast Thy reward
In having her as wife:
We live in Thee our Lord.
