A Poor Wayfaring Stranger is a traditional American folk song with roots that can be traced back to the early 19th century. The song tells the story of a weary traveler who is journeying through a difficult world in search of a brighter future in the afterlife. The song's haunting melody and poignant lyrics have made it a favorite of singers and audiences alike, and it has been covered by countless artists over the years.

The song's origins are somewhat murky, but it is believed to have originated in the southern United States, possibly in the Appalachian Mountains. The earliest known version of the song dates back to the 1820s, when it was collected by musicologist and folklorist John Jacob Niles. Niles recorded the song as part of his efforts to preserve traditional American folk music, and he later performed it as part of his own repertoire.

Over the years, A Poor Wayfaring Stranger has become a staple of the American folk music canon, and it has been covered by a wide range of artists, including Joan Baez, Johnny Cash, Emmylou Harris, and many others. The song's haunting melody and spiritual themes have made it a powerful symbol of hope and perseverance, and it continues to inspire and move people around the world.

Hope that Lasts is written for SAB choir with a trio and is appropriate for church services throughout the year, especially services with a theme of hope and encouragement. The message of this song is hope. The verses are intended to represent God's words  to us, in which He encourages and guides us along our paths. The voicing-three  individuals singing in unison-is meant to represent the three parts of the  Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

vs. 1 I have a plan  just for you,I have prepared  you something new.I will protect, I will provide, I’ll always be there by your side.

vs 3. Watch me and  see what I do, I will take  care of you. Now I want you  to understand, The hopeful future I have planned.

The chorus intentionally switches between singular and  plural, demonstrating the importance of both an individual and a corporate  relationship with God. After the last verse, the chorus changes to demonstrate  that we are strengthened and assured by what He tells us. Suggested Scripture passages: Isaiah 43:18-19, Philippians 3:13-14, I Thessalonians 1:2, Jeremiah 29:11, and Colossians 3:2.

Chorus: Will you make a way for me, Lead me along  this path? Will you show  me where to go, And give me  hope that lasts? Will you make a way for us, Lead us along  this path? Will you show  us where to go,  And give  us hope that lasts?
