Darkness Is As Light With You

 

Though my path may be lost in night,
The way rocky and steep,
I will not let fear rule my heart
For I am Yours to keep.
 
Though all the stars are lost in cloud,
The moon hiding its face,
Still, I will find my way to You,
Relying on Your grace.
 
You are the light upon my path,
My strength during travail,
And I will not quake in despair,
For Your love will not fail.
 
I know this life’s a rocky road
That leads me down dark ways,
But I know, too, You’re always near,
Even on my worst days.
 
Let then the darkness do its best
To trap me in the night.
For I know there’s no darkness, Lord,
That can obscure Your Light.
 
Psalm 139:11-12
If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night,” even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with you.
