Hope and Glory
Tim Hughes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Jesus hope to every heart
We are lost without Your glory
We are lost without You God
Be the fire, that burns within us
Flames of love that purify
Send Your power and Your salvation,
Only You can move the mountain
Only You can heal our land
Christ alone, our hope and glory
Christ alone in You we stand
Turn Your eyes and show us mercy
How we need Your Father's love
Lead us home, and out of darkness,
With Your gospel, burning bright
We believe our God is mighty
We believe our God is here
We believe our King is coming
Christ alone in You we stand
Praise the Lord, our God is mighty
Praise the Lord, our God is here
Praise the Lord, our King is coming
Christ alone in You we stand

Tim Hughes's song "Hope and Glory" is a stirring call for divine intervention and redemption in a world that is often chaotic and filled with despair. The song reflects the Christian belief in Jesus as the ultimate source of hope and salvation, and the lyrics speak of a deep longing for God's presence and guidance in every area of life.
The opening lines of the song, "Hear our cry, oh King of heaven, Jesus hope to every heart," set the tone for the rest of the song. The words here express a desperate plea for help and a recognition of the need for God's divine intervention. The second verse speaks of the transformative power of God's love and the hope that it brings, while the chorus proclaims that only God can move mountains and heal the land.
In the third verse, the singer asks God to show mercy and lead them out of darkness with the gospel burning bright. The final chorus is a triumphant declaration of faith in God's might and presence. Throughout the song, the theme of Christ alone as the source of hope and glory is repeated as a reminder to listeners of the essential role that faith plays in helping people find meaning and purpose in life.

Lord the people in Hong Kong are hurting and hopeless as we see all the injustice and police brutality happen, as we watch our rights and freedom being stripped away. I pray that you would pour down your spirit and reveal Yourself to us, so we know that even in the midst of utter darkness, You are the light and hope. Because only YOU can heal our land.
