631- When On Life A Darkness Falls

Christian Life: Pilgrimage

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.
