631   When On Life A Darkness Falls




[1]
When on life a darkness falls
When the mist flows chilling
Paths and signposts lost in doubt
Loveless unfulfilling
Reach us Jesus from Your cross
Though we feel forsaken;
Keep us through the aching night
Till new dawns awaken.

[2]
When the dreams and vows of youth
Painfully accuse us
Stab our conscience steal our worth
Christ will not refuse us:
Peace the world cannot provide
Daily resurrection
Strong companion at our side
For each new direction.

[3]
Come and meet Him Friend and Lord
Thro the gospel story:
Open door to life and peace
Window into glory.
All who seek Him soon are found
Made His close relation:
Christ our pathway Christ our home
Christ our sure foundation.
