I will trust You in the darkness I will serve You in my pain I will worship in the wilderness And will follow to the end For You are the suffering shepherd And You know Your sheep by name So I will trust You in the darkness once again I'll believe Your word of comfort When the light of life grows dim I will heed Your voice at midnight When the tempests rage within I will cling to Christ my Saviour Who has borne my sorrow's sting I will trust You in the darkness once again I will praise Your name in winter When the skies are cold and grey I will feed upon Your promises And will cry to You each day I will lean upon Your Spirit And Your word will I obey I will trust You in the darkness come what may I will trust You in the darkness On Your faithfulness depend As I long for Your appearing And the day that never ends I will glory in the gospel And Your word of truth defend I will trust You in the darkness once again I will trust You in the darkness, O my friend
