Natalie Grant Album: Relentless Track: Our Hope Endures
Our Hope Endures Lyrics
You would think only so much can go wrong Calamity only strikes once And you assume this one has suffered her share Life will be kinder from here Oh, but sometimes the sun stays hidden for years Sometimes the sky rains night after night When will it clear?
But our Hope endures the worst of conditions It's more than our optimism Let the earth quake Our Hope is unchanged
How do we comprehend peace within pain? Or joy at a good man's wake? Walk a mile with the woman whose body is racked With illness, oh how can she laugh? Oh, 'cause sometimes the sun stays hidden for years Sometimes the sky rains night after night When will it clear?
But our Hope endures the worst of conditions It's more than our optimism Let the earth quake Our Hope is unchanged
Emmanuel, God is with us El Shaddai, all sufficient We never walk alone And this is our hope
But our Hope endures the worst of conditions It's more than our optimism Let the earth quake Our Hope is unchanged
(Christa N. Wells, N. Grant)
Song Description: "This very honest lyric was written for a woman greatly struggling with cancer. Life so often doesn't make sense, and I can relate to the Psalmist when he wonders why the wicked prosper and the righteous suffer. But our Hope endures the worst of conditions. We serve an everlasting, all-knowing, all-sufficient God; our El-Shaddai, our Emmanuel; our only Hope in this life." - Natalie Grant
