Analysis of Tenacious Hope



I need to have tenacious hope;
Belief beyond all human scope.
In God I must have trust!

I can't defeat demonic plans.
My daily life he often scans.
To him, I 'm only dust.

My Lord has just the plan for me,
Which He will partly let me see.
He knows what I can learn.

I must not fear the next attack
That Satan plans behind my back,
Because to God I turn!
