Darkness rises When we least expect it Darkness rises It can feel like a cloak Heavy and cold Choking us Smothering Choking out the light It can feel like The light has gone out for good You can start to wonder if you will ever Feel that light again If you will ever feel that peace It can be easy To lose faith To wonder if God even cares If he has forsaken you You must endure The darkness never lasts forever Joy and light Are waiting in the morning
