In Times of Darkness 1. In times of darkness and distress, On You, bright Sun of Righteousness, My faith has fixed its eye; You plan my way, ahead I go, Nor fear the ruin spread below, For You are always nigh. 2. Not all the pow'rs of hell can fright A soul that walks with Christ in light; He walks and cannot fall: He clearly sees, and finds his way, He walks unto the perfect day, And more than conquers all. 3. I rest in Your almighty power; The name of Jesus is a tower, That hides my life above: You can, You will my Helper be; With confidence to You I flee, The faithful God of love. 4. Wherefore, in never-ceasing prayer, I place my soul into Your care, A care that does not end; This life You gave I know you'll save, And show Yourself beyond the grave My everlasting Friend.
