THE BEACON OF HOPE.

Trapped in the dungeon of darkness

Forsaken in the pit without water

Deserted at the desert of sorrows

Besieged by wild wicked wolves

Ambushed by merciless leopards

Blood thirsty dragons hovering on the horizon

Ah! Which way to go?

Where shall help come from?

Has the end come?

Any hope of deliverance?

Oh! See the chariots of the Lord’s Army

An indomitable and invincible troop

Decelerating on the wings of mercy and grace

With trumpets of hope

And sceptres of deliverance

Seeking for the hopeless

To deliver them from the dungeons of darkness;

From the waterless pits

From the deserts of sorrows

From the caves of hopelessness

As they sound the trumpets of hope

And stretched forth the sceptres of deliverance;

Great light flooded the horizon

The darkened dragons driven away

Prison gates opened

Chains being broken

Captives freed and delivered

Beacon of hope being illuminated

Sing, Sing, Sing

Dance, Dance, Dance

Rejoice, Rejoice, Rejoice

For you are now being surrounded

By songs of deliverance

Never again shall you be ashamed

Never again shall you be disgraced

Never again shall you be forsaken

Never again shall you be hopeless

For on Mount Zion,

The Hill of the Lord

Is your Beacon of hope, established eternally

And its light, shall illuminate continually.
