1 In darkness I wandered till Jesus I found,
And then, praise his name! And then, praise his name!
The clear light of heaven my pathway shone round,
And peace to my spirit there came.
Chorus:
And now I'm confiding, And sweetly abiding
In Jesus, my Saviour, Companion and Guide;
His name I'm confessing, He fills me with blessing;
To me he's far dearer Than all else beside.
2 The birds o'er my head seemed to sing a new song,
So wondrously sweet, So wondrously sweet;
All nature seemed praising in notes loud and long,
My Saviour, when first we did meet. [Chorus]
3 And now we are walking together along,
My Saviour and I, My Saviour and I;
He blesses and leads me with hand kind and strong,
And freely his grace does supply. [Chorus]
4 Oh, wonderful Brother, Redemer and Friend!
I love him I know, I love him I know;
This blessed companionship, never to end,
Grows sweeter as onward I go. [Chorus]
