I am walking in the darkness: / All around me is the night. / I am groping in the shadows, / And I cannot see the light. / Every sunbeam has departed; / There is gloom throughout the land. / I am fainting by the wayside -- / Heavenly Father, take my hand.
Oh, the paths are rough and thorny, / That my weary feet have trod. / I am bleeding -- I am dying, / Take me by the hand, O God! / Let my gloomy way be lighted, / By the glory of Thy face! / And thy broad and mighty bosom, / Let it be my resting place.
