God Shines In The Darkness

God shines in the darkness

His beauty to behold

Warm embers softly glowing

His passionate love unfolds.

Mighty God of mercy

Each day fresh and new

With petals sweetly scented

Flowers kissed with morning dew.

Your light forever shining

Upon a moonlit night

Gentle breezes blowing

Spirits lift in flight.

Magnificent your beauty

One word and earth stands still

Ears strain to hear your voice

And yearn to do your will.

Rejoicing in your presence

Hands lift in jubilee

For shining in the darkness

Gave wings and set man free.
