Product Description
Hope that Lasts is written for SAB choir with a trio and is appropriate for church services throughout the year, especially services with a theme of hope and encouragement. The message of this song is hope. The verses are intended to represent God's words to us, in which He encourages and guides us along our paths. The voicing-three individuals singing in unison-is meant to represent the three parts of the Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
vs. 1 I have a plan just for you,I have prepared you something new.I will protect,
I will provide, Ill always be there by your side.
vs 3. Watch me and see what I do, I will take care of you. Now I want you to understand, The hopeful future I have planned.
The chorus intentionally switches between singular and plural, demonstrating the importance of both an individual and a corporate relationship with God. After the last verse, the chorus changes to demonstrate that we are strengthened and assured by what He tells us. Suggested Scripture passages: Isaiah 43:18-19, Philippians 3:13-14, I Thessalonians 1:2, Jeremiah 29:11, and Colossians 3:2.
Chorus: Will you make a
way for me, Lead me along this path? Will you show me where to go, And give me hope that lasts? Will you make a
way for us, Lead us along this path? Will you show us where to go, And give us hope that lasts?
