John Michael Talbot Holy Darkness
Holy darkness, blessed night,
heaven's answer hidden from our sight.
As we await you, O God of silence,
we embrace your holy night.
I have taught your soul to grieve.
In the barren soil of your loneliness,
there I will plant my seed.
you have stood before the grave.
Though my love can seem
like a raging storm,
this is the love that saves.
when I raised up the mountains?
Can you guide the morning star?
Does the hawk take flight
when you give command?
I will give you wealth untold.
When the silence stills your spirit,
will my riches fill your soul.
and the bride awaits her groom,
so we wait to hear your footsteps
as we rest beneath your moon.
