A Present Help

1 In the darkest hour of sorrow, never, never fear;
For the tender, loving Saviour will be ever near;
He will lead thee, safely lead thee, thro’ the night of gloom,
To the land of light and promise, far beyond the tomb.

Chorus:
Never fear, never fear,
In the darkest hour of sorrow never fear, never fear;
Never fear, never fear,
For the tender, loving Saviour will be ever near.

2 Tho’ the saves should overwhelm thee, He will hold thy hand;
Thou shalt reach the distant haven, reach the better land;
O the blessed, blessed promise, thro’ all good and ill,
Light and gladness, night and sadness, He is with thee still. [Chorus]
