Long did we in the dark remain Oppressed by doubt and fear and pain And could no helper find: We did not know the way of peace And could not from transgression cease Nor change the carnal mind. To us the path seemed steep and long And oft our best made plans went wrong And led us to despair: While other hearts were gay and giad, We often felt depressed and sad And full of anxious care. Brought dowi into the very dust, We could not in that Saviour trnst Who lit crates the slave: So heavv was the burden then, And distant se emed our fellow men: For noi e could help nor save. But He who knew our doubts and feai In kindness w iped away those tears Which did our eyes bedim. We heard the message from above, And tyiiseions of our Saviour's love We leai net! to ti ust in Him.
