A Message of Hope

Author: Ella S. Clark Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: There's a message full of hope Refrain First Line: Christ can save and keep, we know Lyrics: 1. There’s a message full of hope For the penitents who mourn, With a heart of sorrow weeping o’er their sin; For our blessèd Lord has said, He that cometh unto Me, I will never cast away, but take him in. Refrain Christ can save and keep, we know; He will wash as white as snow, ’Tis a message full of hope; Tell it out where’er you go. 2. There’s a message full of hope, Tho’ their many sins appear Like a mountain reaching upward to the sky, And the spirit low may sink ’Neath the burden, in despair, And they fear that no deliverer is nigh. [Refrain] 3. There’s a message full of hope, When at last we bid farewell To our friends and all those earthly scenes for aye; For the Master we have loved Is the pilot who will guide All the faithful to the land of endless day.
