 THE HOPE OF ISRAEL

Stanza 1

I come with Heaven's host in peace,
To tear down lies and pride's deceit.
To build the truth, to plant His name,
And raise what's just in holy flame.
But if you spurn this offered grace,
Prepare for war in every place.

Stanza 2 (Refrain)

Hope of Israel, rise once more,
With strength and trust, your heart restore.
Take up the sword of truth and light,
Stand firm and bold in holy fight.
Sound the trumpet! Do not delay-
The call to arms rings out today.

Stanza 3

No time remains to turn or wait,
The Lord prepares to seal our fate.
The battle forms, the field is near,
The harvest comes-we must not fear.
Feed every lamb with gentle grace,
And hold the line in mercy's place.

Stanza 4

Behold the foe in dread and flight,
Their shadows fall in heaven's light.
Disarmed they flee in clouds of shame,
Their pride consumed in ash and flame.
With empty lamps and truth denied,
They fall without the oil supplied.

Stanza 5

Hope of Israel, do not delay,
The time to fight is now-today!
Let Zion's voice in triumph sing,
And every knee bow to the King.
Our Captain leads in truth and might,
His light shall break the longest night.

Stanza 6

 
Hope of Israel, strong and sure,
Strike hard for Zion, swift and pure.
Let justice blaze from edge of steel,
And crush the lies that would conceal.
Each step we take shall break the chain,
Till none but truth and light remain.

Stanza 7

Hope of Israel, rise again,
With strength renewed from deep within.
Take up the sword of truth and right,
And stand your ground in holy light.
Sound the trumpet! Let it soar-
The battle cry shall shake the shore.

Stanza 8

Come now and march without delay,
O Hope of Israel, lead the way!
We meet you on Zion's high place,
With songs of joy and shouts of praise.
The Lord shall crown you in His light,
With life and justice shining bright.

Stanza 9

Glory to Him who bore the cross,
And turned the grave into our cause.
He rose in power, crowned to reign,
The Victor's name we now proclaim.
To Him be honor, crown, and flame-
All nations bow and bless His name.

Scripture References:

"Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places                                                                                                          Ephesians 6:11-12

"For behold, at that day shall he rage in the hearts of the children of men, and stir them up to anger against that which is good. And others will he pacify, and lull them away into carnal security, that they will say: All is well in Zion; yea, Zion prospereth, all is well-and thus the devil cheateth their souls, and leadeth them away carefully down to hell.                                                                                                                    2 Nephi 28:20-21
