Everyone knows what it is to hope. In the heart of each person, hope dwells as the desire and expectation of good things to come.

Spes non confundit #1

Hope is a kernel of light and strength
which dwells in our hearts
in expectation of good things to come.
Light up our lives with your love
so that we may be signs of hope.

Hope shines brightly,
but the burdens of life
can dampen its glow.
Light up our lives with your love
so that we may be signs of hope.

Lead us as pilgrims on a journey
alongside our brothers and sisters
as we respond to your Jubilee call.
Light up our lives with your love
so that we may be signs of hope.

Renew our faith
and move us to action
as we commit to building a better world.
Light up our lives with your love
so that we may be signs of hope.

Amen.
