Hope Deferred and Heart Desire

"Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.... The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul" (Proverbs 13:12,19).

Hope deferred is part of life;
Heart desire is as well.
Look beyond the present strife:
Heaven triumphs over hell.

While our hope is in the Lord,
We can rest; He's in control.
Christ shall come with His reward;
Come, Desire of our soul!
