I Find Jesus - Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

I walk in silence when it comes

This feeling when the spirit leads me on

If the dogs are barking and the night is rough

I take it as a sign to climb above

The city to the hill among the clouds

Where I can see my Saviour now

He’s waiting with His palm to me outstretched

His mercy is a balm when I’m perplexed

I find Jesus in the darkest night

I find Jesus in the morning light

I find Jesus in the face of those

Whose hearts are singing with the Heavenly Host

Sometimes when I feel all alone

I look around and all are gone

The friends that I rely upon

Are busy doing what they want

I look within and I am told

It’s Sunday morning in my soul

And there I find a holy hall

Where congregations heed the call

I find Jesus in the darkest night

I find Jesus in the morning bright

I find Jesus in the face of those

Whose hearts are singing with the Heavenly Host

And when I lay down my last time

And feel a chill run up my spine

And recognize my time has come

I’ll look around, He’ll lead me home

He’ll reach His loving hand to me

And bid me climb to victory

Where we’ll find kindred spirits there

Hearts raised in song without a care

I find Jesus in the darkest night

I find Jesus in the morning bright

I find Jesus in the face of those

Whose hearts are singing with the Heavenly Host
