God is Faithful, We are Hopeful
Posted: November 29, 2025
New lyrics to an Advent hymn by Greg Asimakoupoulos…
God is faithful. We are hopeful.
Glancing back, we gaze ahead.
Faith is nourished by our memories
of the ways that God has led.
What He’s promised gives assurance.
Keeping calm, we carry on.
Though tomorrow calls for trusting,
hope’s renewed with each new dawn.
God is faithful. We are hopeful.
Answered prayer inspires praise.
Memories of how He’s helped us
nurtures hope for future days.
Recognition of God’s blessings
is the means to trust Him more
as we face what finds us fearful
of uncertainties in store.
God is faithful. We are hopeful.
Looking unto Christ alone,
we can live with joyful courage
based on what the past has shown.
Daily mercies new each morning.
Grace abundant. Hope renewed.
God is faithful. We are hopeful
for His promises are true.
tune: Joyful, Joyful We Adore Thee
