I Need the Light

Author: Mrs. Helen Dungan Hymnal: Songs for Work and Worship #66 (1900) First Line: When the night is dark and the way is steep Refrain First Line: I need the light, the blessed light Lyrics: 1 When the night is dark and the way is steep, Oh, I need the blessed light that will guide me in the night; For his promise true he will ever keep, And will lead me by his light divine. Chorus: I need the light, the blessed light, I need the light that leads from earth to heaven above; I need the light, the blessed light, I need the light that leads to God. 2 Walking day by day in the storm-pressed way, Oh, I need the blessed light that will guide me in the night; If I walk with him by my side he’ll stay, And will lead me by his light divine. [Chorus] 3 From thy precious care may I never stray, Oh, I need the blessed light that will guide me in the night; For thy hand will guide into perfect day, And will lead me by thy light divine. [Chorus] Topics: Bible Languages: English Tune Title: [When the night is dark and the way is steep]
