Song of John

Softly as the night kindles candlelight
Gently as the twilight heralds eventide
Jesus comes to me, calms me tenderly
Whispering all my weariness away

Once upon a Thursday night
A supper did renew my life
Once upon a garden prayer
Cried, "My Solitude is nigh now"

Softly as the night kindles candlelight
Gently as the twilight heralds eventide
Jesus comes to me
Never fearful shall I be

Once upon a Thursday night
A supper did renew my life
Once upon a garden prayer
Cried, "My Solitude is nigh now"

Whose but Savior's night, who but God's Delight
Who but he whose night His friends had left behind
Can fill my emptiness and promise me a sunrise?
Jesus, Lord of life, Candle of the night
Sweet solitary life
