The Stanley Brothers – Darkest Hour Is Just Before Dawn, The Lyrics

The darkest hour is just before dawn
The narrow way leads home
Lay down your soul at Jesus' feet
The darkest hour is just before dawn

The sun is slowly sinking
The day is almost gone
Still darkness falls around us
And we must journey on

Like a shepherd out on the mountain
A watching the sheep down below
He's coming back to claim us
Will you be ready to go
