about

Whispering Hope was composed by Septimus Winner (using the pseudonym Alice Hawthorne) and was first published in 1868.

Athough it was not meant to be a religious song, it proved to be one of his most successful songs (along with “Listen to the Mockingbird,” which sold more than 25 million copies of sheet music) and has been published in hymnbooks continuously.
Our unique version is again inspired by (if divergent from) the Blue Sky Boys.

lyrics

Soft as the voice of an angel,
Breathing a lesson unheard,
Hope with a gentle persuasion
Whispers her comforting word:
Wait till the darkness is over,
Wait till the tempest is done,
Hope for the sunshine tomorrow,
After the shower is gone.

Whispering hope, oh, how welcome thy voice,
Making my heart in its sorrow rejoice.

If, in the dusk of the twilight,
Dim be the region afar,
Will not the deepening darkness
Brighten the glimmering star?
Then when the night is upon us,
Why should the heart sink away?
When the dark midnight is over,
Watch for the breaking of day.

Whispering hope, oh, how welcome thy voice,
Making my heart in its sorrow rejoice.

Eulalie Cleveland Heights, Ohio

Eulalie (pronounce it "YOU-la-lee")
True blue. Guaranteed 100% irony-free.

Hauntingly stark, sweetly sentimental, or just plain fun,
these old songs tell the stories of people's lives.
Ron & Donna treat these treasures with the love and respect of honest, straightforward arrangements inspired by the old masters of parlor, dance hall, and backwoods.
