¶Liedtext

Slowly darkening The ev'ning hours roll on, And soon behind the cloudland Will sink my setting Sun. Around my path life's mysteries Their deep'ning shadows throw, And as I gaze and ponder, They dark and darker grow. But there's a voice a-bove me Which say, "Wait, trust and pray, The night will soon be over, And light will come with day." Father! the light and darkness Are both alike to thee; Then to the waiting servant Alike they both shall be. The great unending future, I cannot pierce its shroud; Yet, nothing doubt, nor trouble, God's bow is on the cloud. To him I yield my spirit; On him I lay my load; Fear ends with death; beyond it I nothing see but God Thus moving towards darkness I calmly wait his call, Now seeing, fearing nothing, But hoping, trusting all.
