- Go to SONNET GAME: DOWN TO THE LAST LINE. WHO WILL CAP THE COUPLET?
Very good muser!! I am impressed. I will give others five days to top you.
If the general consensus -- as determined by a vote of all participants -- is that yours is the best ending after five days, you win!

Second try...
Yet blind faith thrives when hearts with hope are fed.

Slight stylistic problem with this ending, muser....
the formal requirements of a sonnet preclude the same word being used as a rhyme. So perhaps you could wed the penultimate line's end-word dead with a better rhyme! With such a good head on your shoulders, and so eloquent a grasp of the wonders of wordplay at your disposal, I know you can follow my lead!

ENDING THOUGHT...
But blind faith thrives on Hope, lest Faith be dead.
