We are Saved by Hope

We are Saved by Hope

God has something better         there's hope
God has a plan for your life       there's hope
There is hope in Jesus               He's your Friend
There is hope in Jesus               it will never end

When you say "I'm not good enough"
When you say "I'm just giving up"
When you say "There's no hope for me"
Don't look down but look up! to Calvary

When you think you're past feeling
When you think you're past healing
When you think "There's no hope for me"
Don't look down but look up! to Calvary

When the devil comes and lies to you again
When he says you have no hope, no friends
When he whispers "There's no hope for thee"
Don't listen to him but look up! to Calvary

There is hope in Jesus
...it will never end

We are saved by hope.

"And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit,
   even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit,
   the redemption of our body.
"For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope:
   for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for?
"But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
"Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we
    should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for
    us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
"And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit,
     because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God."
                                            Romans 8:23-27
