I listened to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJbAZHUpUZc
I think I transcribed all the words right but would like someone to double check

HOPE
The hope that is within us erupting from the sand
is clear and pure refreshment in dry and barren land.
The scorching circumstances can't stop that eager flow
of hope that springs eternal this joy that floods my soul

Oh Jesus, blessed Jesus my well spring in the sand
Oh Jesus, blessed Jesus my strong and saving hand
Oh Jesus, blessed Jesus my anchor, tether, rope
the voice that stills all rages, my shouting whispering hope

you can not make it happen. like faith it is a gift
the currents of depression, the power of hope will lift
just when you least expect it, a rescue raft comes by
and ties your weary spirit to wings so you can fly

chorus

It's a hope that sometimes whispers. A hope that sometimes shouts
and sometimes hope's mighty gale will part the sea of doubt
Hope calms the raging fevers, commands the storms of pain
hope turns life's threatening tempest to gentle soothing rain

chorus

Thank you so much! I hope you enjoyed this song as much as my wife and I did. We were trying to transcribe the chorus and couldn't figure out the end of the line, "Oh Jesus, blessed Jesus my anchor, tether, rope."

Hi Wayne & Wife.
It was a blessing to hear the truth about Hope in Jesus so eloquently expressed.
I got a chuckle out of your comment about the phrase
"Oh Jesus, blessed Jesus my anchor, tether, rope."
At the time I was transcribing, I thought to myself
that I wouldn't have figured it out either before I got a boat.
Thanks for the cheer you blessed me with in your reply
Lord Bless you and increase your Faith & Hope today.
