OUR HOPE REMAINS JESUS CHRIST
Words and
music by Mary Rose Jensen
Verse 1
Who comforted Job when he'd lost it all
And his wife and his friends said that
he was to blame?
He knew his Redeemer would live and so
would he.
His hope remained Jesus Christ.
CHORUS:
There is One Who saves
Who has died and now lives again.
We will rise with Him.
Our hope remains Jesus Christ.
Verse 2
When Abraham heard Isaac had to die
He remembered the word of the promise of
God
And trusted that
through him all nations would be blessed.
His hope remained Jesus Christ.
CHORUS
Verse 3
When Moses was out in the wilderness
Leading those
who rebelled and complained of their thirst.
The Rock that was struck was the Lord
and water flowed.
His hope remained Jesus Christ.
CHORUS
Verse 4
When Peter and John were in custody
And commanded to stop preaching joyful
good news
They told of the crucified One raised from the dead.
Their hope remained Jesus Christ.
CHORUS
Verse 5
God's people have sought through the
centuries
To remember the
Lord and be faithful to Him.
The truth of the gospel convinced them
to stay strong.
Their hope remained Jesus Christ.
CHORUS
