L. M. Jane Roscoe. Light in Darkness. |
1 My Father, when around me spread I see the shadows of the tomb, When life's bright visions droop and fade, And darkness veils the days to come, -- 2 O, in that anguished hour I turn With a still trusting heart to Thee, And holy thoughts arise and burn Amid that cold, sad destiny! 3 They fill my soul with heavenly light, While all around is pain and woe; And strengthened by them, in Thy sight, Father, to drink Thy cup I go.
