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

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
