How Sweet the Darkness
Author: Rachel Bates Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: When windows that are black and cold Lyrics: 1 When windows that are black and cold
are lit anew with fires of gold;
When dusk in quiet shall descend
and darkness come once more a friend.

and bring not terror but delight;
When clouds are innocent again
and hide no storms of deadly rain;
3 And when the sky is swept of wars
and keeps but gentle moon and stars,
That peaceful sky, harmless air,
how sweet, how sweet, the darkness there. Topics: Humanist Teachings; Celebration and Praise; Gratitude and Thanks; Justice and Social Action; Love and Compassion Used With Tune: MAURO
