Romans 5:2-5
King James Version
2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
