In Your Darkest Hour

by: Mark Lopez & Paulo Tirol

In your darkest hour, did you see Me?
In your deepest sorrow, did you feel My comfort?
In your loneliness, did you take My outstretched Hand?
Your darkness is Mine too, and your sorrows I do share,
In your brokenness, My child, I am there.

In your time of pain, I embraced you,
Soothed your wounded spirit, whispered words of courage,
Led you by the hand when you knew not where to go.
For your darkness is Mine too, and your sorrows I do share,
In your brokenness, My child, I am there.

And My Hand shall never leave you.
You are Mine, My child.
Cast your load upon Me and rest your weary heart.
As is now and will always be: I am there.
And My Light shall never fail you.
You are Mine, My child.
I bring you a new day to renew your life and hope.
May you always remember, My child, I am there,

That in your darkest hour, you will see Me.
In your deepest sorrow, you will feel My comfort.
In your loneliness, you will take My outstretched Hand.
For your darkness is Mine too, and your sorrows I do share,
My child, I am ever there.

When again that hour comes,
When again the night sets in,
I am ever there, My child, and the dawn again I'll bring!

There are times when life tests us, when it seems as if we are desperately lost. And yet, we recall the Eucharistic Prayer that consoles us: "…when we were lost and could not find our way to You, You loved us more than ever."

In this composition by Mark Lopez and Paulo Tirol, we hear the words of a comforting Father who sustains us with His love. He is close to us when we cannot find our way, sharing in our sorrow and in our pain, lovingly waiting for us to see His guiding hand.
