Light the first purple candle. This candle represents Hope.
We can have Hope because God is with us and is Faithful to keep His promises He made to us.

Romans 15:12-13 (ASV)
12. And again, Isaiah saith, There shall be
the root of Jesse, And he that ariseth to rule over the Gentiles; on him shall
the Gentiles hope.
13. Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in
believing, that ye may abound in hope, in the power of the Holy Spirit.
This candle is also the
"Prophecy" Candle. The Prophecy Candle represents the prophets who
foretold the birth of Jesus.
Luke 1:26-33 (King James)
26. And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth.
27. To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.
28. And the angel came in unto her, and said, "Hail, thou art highly favoured, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women."
29. And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.
30. And the angel said unto her, "Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.
31. And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.
32. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David.
33. And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
