Darkest Hour Is Just Before Down Lyrics

(Ralph Stanley)

The sun is slowly sinkin` 
The day`s almost gone 
Still darkness falls around us 
And we must journey on 

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 

Like a shepherd out on the mountain 
A-watchin` the sheep down below 
He`s coming back to claim us 
Will you be ready to go 

The darkest hour is just before dawn 
The narrow way leads home 
Lay down your soul 
Let Jesus in 
The darkest hour is just before dawn 
The darkest hour is just before dawn
