I Will Hope

God is our refuge and strength,
a very present help in trouble.

I will not be afraid.

Therefore, we will not fear,
though the earth should change.

I will not lose hope.

Though the mountains shake
in the heart of the sea.

I will live with courage.

Though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble
with its tumult.

I will not lose hope.

Let love be genuine, hate what is evil,
hold fast to what is good…Rejoice in
hope, be patient in suffering, persevere
in prayer…If it is possible, so far as
it depends on you, live peaceably with all.

I will hope.
