Finding the Christ

1 Losing the sorrow which swept o’er my soul,
Losing the burden I bare,
Losing the shadows which darkened the road,
Even my worry and care;
Finding a joy which the world cannot give,
Finding the peace which I crave,
Even the sunshine which brightens the way,—
Finding the Christ who can save!

Refrain:
Finding the hope that’s eternal,
Finding the peace that I crave,
Losing the burden of sorrow and sin,
Finding the Christ who can save!

2 Losing the doubtings which fill’d me with dread,
Losing the pain and the smart,
Even the longing for someone to help,
Sadness which dwelt in my heart;
Finding a hope which is leading me on,
Finding a Helper that’s near,
Even the comfort His presence bestows,—
Finding the Christ who can cheer! [Refrain]

3 Losing the darkness which clouded my life,
Losing the murmur and sigh,
Losing the dangers which hid in my path,
Tempters and foes who were nigh;
Finding a balm which will heal ev’ry wound,
Finding a smile and a song,
Even the One who delivers from sin,—
Finding the Christ who is strong! [Refrain]
