“Night Songs”
“But none saith, Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night;” – Job 35:10
The music from the Christian’s heart contains no minor key.
The lyrics tell of wondrous grace, salvation full and free.
The songs are heard at nighttime, when darkness hides the sun.
The road of life seems dreary in this Christian race we run.
The Giver of our music gives the songs we sing at night.
He knows when hearts are heavy, when hope seems out of sight.
He knows when minds are cloudy and it’s hard to find our way.
He knows we’re prone to envy, our youth of yesterday.
The content of the songs we sing surpass the songs of man.
The songs are filled with hope and peace, a promised better land.
Our night will soon be over and the darkness will be done.
The songs the Father giveth, will continue to be sung.
We’ll sing the songs in daylight in the presence of the King.
The praises of our Saviour, forever they will ring.
Our night songs will be over and our sorrows in the past.
Our day songs will be sing with joy, forever they will last.
