> Sometimes when shadows linger
> And darkness veils the night,
> When pain obscures my vision
> And things aren't going right.   When the world around me crumbles
> And a friend cannot be found,
> When tomorrow holds no promise
> And life has got me down.   When I am at my lowest
> And I can bear no more,
> I cry to God in anguish
> He greets me at the door.   He gently whispers to me
> My soul has found release,
> My troubles start to perish
> My worries seem to cease.   The hardships I have known
> Seem to vanish with the wind,
> When I seek His loving Spirit
> And I humbly ask Him in.   All the turmoil that surrounds me
> Seems to fade like shifting sand,
> When I linger in His presence
> And He gently takes my hand.
