Light in our dark­ness, hope in our fear,
Joy in our sor­row, still Thou art near;
Constant, un­chang­ing, praise to Thy name,
Now and for­ev­er Thou art the same.

Refrain

Thou hast re­deemed us—we are Thine own;
Thou wilt not leave us friend­less alone;
Hope to the pro­mise trust­ing­ly clings,
Thou wilt de­fend us un­der Thy wings.

Gifts that with morn­ing fall like the dew,
Still with the ev­en­ing cheer us anew;
Songs of re­joic­ing, an­thems of praise,
Lord, for Thy good­ness help us to raise.

Refrain

What tho’ the night clouds frown on the deep?
Watch o’er Thy loved ones Thine eye will keep;
Rocked on the bil­low, weak and dis­mayed,
Thy voice wilt whis­per, Be not afraid.
