3 Of thee, O Lord, if thou art hid, That we can't see thy face; O then 'tis night, and we bewail Our sad and woeful case.
3 Of thee, O Lord, if thou art hid, That we can't see thy face; O then 'tis night, and we bewail Our sad and woful case.
5 But though dark Clouds do cover us, And we are in the night; Yet will our Sun rise up and shine, And we shall have sweet light.
5 But O how sad and comfortless Is it i▪ th' dark to dwell! But what's the darkness Saints see here, To th' darkness that's in Hell!
6 Then do not mourn, ye gracious Souls, Your darkness soon will fly, And you shall precious Light enjoy Unto eternity.
