Rob Smith has very kindly given me permission to reproduce the words of his song 'I'll trust you in the darkness' here for you. I have found this song to be of enormous value over the years and again in the current situation with Gracie being so sick. Please enjoy :) and thank you to Rob Smith :)
1. I will trust you in the darkness
I will serve you in my pain
I will worship in the wilderness
And will follow to the end
For you are the suffering shepherd
And you know your sheep by name
So I will trust you in the darkness
— once again
2. I’ll believe your word of comfort
When the light of life grows dim
I will heed your voice at midnight
When the tempests rage within
I will cling to Christ my saviour
Who has borne my sorrow’s sting
And I will trust you in the darkness
— once again
O Lord Jesus
Saviour, brother, friend
Come release us
Lord come back again
3. I will praise your name in winter
When the skies are cold and grey
I will feed upon your promises
And will cry to you each day
I will lean upon your Spirit
And your word will I obey
Yes, I will trust you in the darkness
— once again
O Lord Jesus
Saviour, brother, friend
Come release us
Lord come back again
4. I will trust you in the darkness
On your faithfulness depend
As I long for your appearing
And the day that never ends
I will glory in the gospel
And your word of truth defend
Yes, I will trust you in the darkness
— once again
Yes, I will trust you in the darkness,
— O my friend
