Lyrics (by Gerhard Tersteegen) below:
‘Midst the dark- ness, storm, and sorrow, one bright gleam I see,
well I know the blessed morrow Christ will come for me.
'Midst the light, and peace, and glory of the Father's home,
Christ for me is waiting, watching, waiting 'till I come.
Who is this, who comes to meet me, on the desert way,
as the Morning Star foretelling God's unclouded day
He it is who came to win me, on the cross of shame;
In His glory now I know Him ever- more the same.
Where no shade nor stain can enter, nor the gold be dim;
in that holiness unsullied I shall walk with Him.
Meet companion, then for Jesus, from Him, for Him, made;
Glory of God's grace forever there in me displayed.
He, who in the hour of sorrow bore the curse alone;
I, who through the lonely desert trod where He had gone.
He and I in that bright glory one deep joy shall share;
Mine, to be forever with Him, His that I am there."
