Dark Night

 

In the dark I pray
Crying out Your name
I hear them screaming out
Every cry and every shout.
The world’s become so dark
The candle’s burning low
But I know that its light
     Will get me through this night…

And I hope in the rising Son
I hope for the new day that will come
And light the world again.

Fearfully I stand
Searching for Your hand.
I cannot feel You near
My God have You abandoned me here?

I see everything but You,
How can I make it through?
Even the sun ceases to shine
     Will I see Your face tonight?

And still I hope in the rising Son.
I hope for the new day that will come
     And light the world again.

Though I walk through the valley of death
     I fear no evil.
But my Lord I am so afraid
But I will wait for You to come
I will wait for the rising Son.
