My hope is in the Lord

Lately, I had been losing hope but after listening to a song by Kristian Stanfill called "Day After Day" I realized that my hope was in all the wrong things. I couldn't hope in school becuase what happened when I got a bad grade? My hope hit rock bottom. Same thing happened when I put my hope in my family, friends, and pets. I mean, fights happen and everyone has bad days. But if my hope is in God, then who (or what) shall I fear?
"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. ... The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge." Psalm 46:1-3, 7
