Artist/Band: Skeeter Davis
Lyrics for Song: Whispering Hope
Lyrics for Album: Hand in Hand With Jesus (RCA Victor) [1967]



(Alice Hawthorne - Alton Howard)



Soft as a voice of an angel breathing a lesson unheard

Hope with a gentle persuasion whispers a 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 any sorrow rejoice.



--- Instrumental ---



Whispering hope, oh, how welcome Thy voice

Making my heart any sorrow rejoice...,


Whispering Hope

Skeeter Davis delivers a tender gospel-infused ballad on her 1967 RCA Victor album Hand in Hand With Jesus. The recording captures her distinctive, clear vocal style, blending country sensibilities with spiritual themes that were central to her repertoire during the mid-1960s. As part of a collection of faith-based tracks, the song reflects the era's intersection of rural American music and religious expression.

The track stands as a notable example of her ability to navigate between secular country pop and sacred music, showcasing her versatility as a vocalist of the period.
