The poem, titled “So Much Hope”, celebrates the Christian concepts of the rapture and the eternal kingdom as sources of profound hope and inspiration. It begins with the anticipation of the rapture, depicted as a glorious moment where believers are called by a trumpet to meet Christ in the clouds. It then envisions the eternal kingdom, a place of golden streets and crystal rivers, free from sorrow and filled with God’s eternal presence. The final stanza emphasizes the boundless hope that uplifts the soul, mending hearts and fulfilling dreams in Christ’s everlasting love. The poem’s tone is uplifting, weaving biblical imagery from 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 and Revelation 21:4, 21 to evoke a sense of divine promise and eternal joy.

We are given the hope of the rapture,
A trumpet’s call, piercing the skies,
Caught up in clouds where glory gathers,
To meet our Savior with radiant eyes.

And the dream of the eternal kingdom,
Where golden streets and crystal rivers flow,
No tears remain, no shadows linger,
In God’s embrace, forever we’ll know.
