Night of Worship

Nights of sorrow, nights of doubt
And anxiety is all about
Bewilderment may take its toll
Oppress my spirit and terrify my soul

But God our maker makes the song
And I will sing it all night long
Though darkness may envelop me
And make it very hard to see

With eyes of faith I see the light
The glory of Christ’s face shines bright

This is my night of worship
This is my night of praise
Songs and prayers and the living word
Are the sounds my soul has heard

So in the night with eyes of faith I gaze
And see the light that lights my ways

Bridge
The sun is sinking in the west and dusk is falling hard
Evening drapes its cloak on me so as my soul to guard
The melody my spirit hears become songs in the night
For this I am most grateful,  this  is my heart’s delight

With eyes of faith I see the light
The glory of Christ’s face shines bright

This is my night of worship
This is my night of praise

Songs and prayers and the living word
Are the sounds my soul has heard
So in the night with eyes of faith I gaze
And see the light that lights my ways
