Artist: Jim Reeves
[VERSE]
[G]Soft as the [C]voice of an [G]angel, [Am]breathing a [D]lesson [G]unheard
[G]Hope with a gentle pe[C]rsuasion, [G]whispers her [D]comforting [G]word
[G]Wait till the d[G]arkness is over,[Am] wait till the tempest is[D] done
[G]Hope for the [C]sunshine [G]tomorrow, [G]after the dar[D]kness is go[G]ne
[CHORUS]
[D]Whispering [G]hope oh how [D]welcome Thy [G]voice
[C]Making my h[G]eart in it's [D]sorrow rej[G]oice
[VERSE]
[G]If in the [C]dusk of the [G]twilight, [Am]dim be the r[D]egion a[G]far
[G]Will not the deepenin[C]g darkness, [G]brighten the [D]glimmering [G]star
[G]Then when the n[G]ight is upon us, [Am]why should the heart sink[D] away
[G]When the dark[C] midnight[G] is over, [G]watch for the[D] breaking o[G]f day
[CHORUS]
[D]Whispering [G]hope oh how [D]welcome Thy [G]voice
[C]Making my h[G]eart any sorr[D]ow rejoice[G]
