Songs or hymns about hope please.

[LaBelleDameSansPatience]

Hi. I am planning assemblies again; the theme for the next half term is 'hope'. Has anyone got any ideas for songs I can show on youtube, or hymns we can sing, suitable for primary?

"My hope is built on nothing less"
"Lord of all hopefulness"

Song hosanna. Isn't one of the verses in that 'give me hope in my heart in the morning. La la La'

Erm Sing

Land of Hope and Glory

That song from Glee! Remember the choir at DD's primary singing it. Something like "Don't stop ......"

Give Me Joy In My Heart, Keep Me Praising

I wish I knew how it would feel to be free
There's a backing track etc. on Sing Up if your school subscribes to it.

Thank you ... making list now ... of course, Lord of All Hopefulness - I sang it at school!

Don't stop believing by Journey

Not sure if this count as a "hope" song but certainly makes me feel positive whenever i hear it and it went down a treat when ds class sang it at their school music festival.

Now the green blade rises.

About spring coming after winter and resurrection after the crucifixion and hope after tragedy. Beautiful tune too.
