I, PILGRIM OF THE NIGHT
1. I, pilgrim of
the night;
His star so faintly
steers.
Although the
darkness has enveloped me,
Its glimmer still
appears!
Thro' piercing
thorns I walking agony,
My God I must draw
near.
My song at midnight
gloom shall rise to Thee,
In silence I
endure,
In silence I
endure.
2. I, pilgrim of
the night;
His voice my soul
revives.
Though snares
around me cause my heart to fear,
His hand does
surely guide.
Though tests along
my way cause hopeless drear,
His voice my heart
consoles.
With healing in His
wings my Lord appears,
Embracing me in
love,
Embracing me in
love.
3. I, pilgrim of
the night;
The twilight's
flick'ring on.
Though weeping,
still my soul bursts with delight -
His radiance I
behold!
With tear-stained
face I glance back thro' the night;
My journey nears
its close,
Descending is the
glory, O, so bright!
To Him I swiftly
run!
To Him I swiftly
run!
