I am weary with the pain of Jacob's wrestling In the darkness with the fear, in the darkness with the fear But he met the morning wounded with a blessing So in the night, my hope lives on
And when Elisha woke surrounded by the forces Of the enemies of God, the enemies of God He saw the hills aflame with angels on their horses So in the night, my hope lives on
Oh, in the night Oh, in the night Oh, in the night My hope lives on
I see the slave that toils beneath the yoke unyielding And I can hear the captive groan, hear the captive groan For some hand to stay the whip his foe is wielding Still in the night, my hope lives on
I see the armies of the enemy approaching And the people driven, trembling, to the shore But a doorway through the waters now is opening So in the night, my hope lives on
Oh, in the night Oh, in the night Oh, in the night My hope lives on
Like the son who thought he'd gone beyond forgiveness Too ashamed to lift his head--but if he could lift his head He would see his father running from a distance In the night, my hope lives on
And I can see the crowd of men retreating As he stands between the woman and their stones And if mercy in his holy heart is beating Then in the night, my hope lives on
Well, I remember how they scorned the son of Mary He was gentle as a lamb, gentle as a lamb He was beaten, He was crucified, and buried And in the night, my hope was gone
But the rulers of earth could not control Him No, they did not take His life--He laid it down All the chains of death could never hope to hold Him So in the night, my hope lives on
And I can see the Son of Man descending And the sword He swings is brighter than the dawn And the gates of Hell will never stand against Him So in the night my hope lives on
Oh, in the night Oh, in the night Oh, in the night My hope lives on
Oh, in the night Oh, in the night Oh, in the night My hope lives on
