When the shadows fall and night begins
I feel my heart growing faint
So i will stir myself and meditate
On the thing which gives me strength

When the sun comes up and morning breaks
I think of all i have to do today
So i will stir myself and meditate
On the thing which gives me strength

Your word, it's precious to me
And it's your word, it's precious to me

Though my enemies may all surround me
You will guard, protect and hide me
In the shadow of your wings
So i open my mouth and i breathe in deep
That your word of life may be in me
To overcome the world

When the shadows fall and night begins
Lord don't let me lose my way
Be as a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path
