1 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.

2 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]

3 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. [Refrain]
