Soft as the voice of an angel, Breathing a lesson unheard,
Hope with a gentle persuasion, Whispers her comforting words,
Wait till the darkness is over,
Wait till the darkness is over,
Wait till the tempest is done,
Hope for the sunshine tomorrow,
After the shower is gone,
Whispering hope,
Whispering hope,
Whispering hope,
How well my voice making my heart,
Making my heart,
In its sorrow rejoiced,
In its sorrow rejoiced,
Ah-ah-ah.
Ah-ah-ah.
Ah-ah-ah.
Well, how good may be,
Oh, how I ask of thy voice
Making my heart in its sorrow
Rejoice!
