Sancta Sanctorum

When Hopes Are All Gone

Sancta Sanctorum


There's a force in our souls
That is silent and strong
A conquering strength
For right to be won
Our doom is done

The light is breaking
Through many a rifted cloud
Our enlighted souls awake
And proclaim the truth a loud

When harsh words are said
And when harsh deeds are done
When hopes are all gone
And joys are no more
When the days that are dreary
Drag on one by one
Life sorrows come
And hearts are so pure
For the great good of all
Is humanity's call
When hopes are all gone

We never shall wish it
Was any other way
Do your best for this moment
This hour and this day
The world and its legions
Our brothers shall day
Arousing the races
Of earth to be free
When all words are said
When all deeds are done
There is no more joy
And hopes are all gone

The light is breaking
Through many a rifted cloud
Our enlighted souls awake
And proclaim the truth a loud

When dreary days
Drag on one by one
Life sorrows come
And our doom is done
