The Darkening of the Day

Oh see, with the darkening of the day
How all my cares and troubles fly away
And though through this weary world we stray
All my cares and troubles fly away
With the darkening of the day
Oh see, with the rising of the sun
How light’s an equal gift to everyone
And though down these endless roads we run
Light’s the gift to each and everyone
With the rising of the sun
Oh see, kind words cause the clouds to part
And friendship warms each lonesome broken heart
And though things seem desperate at the start
Friendship warms my lonesome broken
And your kind words cause my darkest clouds to part
Through the shadows and sidelines
In riddles and bad rhymes
There’s signs, songs, and smiling hearts called home
So see, with the darkening of the day
How all my cares and troubles fly away
And though through this weary world we stray
All my cares and troubles fly away
With the darkening of the day
