33. Out of Darkness

1 Out of darkness thro’ marvelous grace,
To the light of His reconciled face;
He forgave all my sin, giving new life within,
And He led me from darkness to light.

Refrain:
Out of darkness to glorious light,
Oh, the bliss, oh, the joy and delight!
Praise the Lord, O my soul, for He maketh me whole,
And for darkness gives glorious light.

2 Out of doubting, and fear, and despair,
Into rest, leaving all to His care;
Then He leadeth my soul, tho’ dark billows may roll,
Out of darkness to glorious light. [Refrain]

3 Out of error, and anguish, and loss,
Into joy, and the gain of the cross;
In its bright streaming ray He is guiding my way,
Out of darkness to glorious light. [Refrain]

4 And some day, precious promise of love,
He is coming in clouds from above;
And He’ll gather His own, His redeemed round the throne,
Out of darkness to glorious light. [Refrain]
