Author: Josephine Pollard Hymnal: On Joyful Wing #68 (1886) First Line: In the darkest hour Refrain First Line: To Jesus! to Jesus Lyrics: 1 In the darkest hour
That my heart may know
Out of Satan’s power
Whiter shall I go?
Refrain:
To Jesus! to Jesus!
Only unto Jesus,
The Saviour so compassionate,
The sinner’s only Friend,
The Saviour so compassionate,
The sinner’s only Friend.
2 Here there is no refuge
For the soul oppressed;
Whither shall I journey?
Whither seek for rest? [Refrain]
3 Poor, and weak, and wretched,
Full of fears and woe,
To be free from torment,
Whither can I go? [Refrain]
4 Bound in cords of anguish,
By my sins dismayed;
Whither, then, ah, wither
Can I look for aid? [Refrain]
5 Joy in tribulation!
Hope that sets me free!
Jesus, my salvation,
Lo! I turn to thee. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 68:2 Tune Title: [In the darkest hour]
