And his hand will bring bread. our
strength to renew:
The night may grow dark, and the wind
may blow cold.
But he'll gather his sheep safe into the
fold.
He died and is risen. to hush every
fear
A promise Is given that he will be near:
He has opened door to mark out tho
way,
And lighted lamp that our feet may
not stray
Then let us not falter when dark shad-
oWS come.
II he is still with us We all shall reach
home,
Where pastures are green and the water
flows clear.
And the shadows of night will never
appear.
