fervently
In burning earnestness
Fervently means with intense feeling or passionate conviction.
Someone who fervently believes something holds that belief with deep emotional force: She fervently hoped her daughter would recover.
The word suggests not just strong feeling but visible or expressed intensity—fervent prayers are urgent, fervent supporters are vocal.
