3 A faith that shines more bright and clear 5 Lord, give me such a faith as this,

When tempests rage without,

That, when in danger, knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt;

And then, whate'er may come,
I taste e'en now the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.

4 Walk in the light: and thou shalt own
Thy darkness passed away,
Because that Light hath on thee shone
In which is perfect day.

3 Walk in the light: and thou shalt find 5 Walk in the light: and e'en the tomb

Thy heart made truly His

Who dwells in cloudless light enshrined,

In whom no darkness is.

No fearful shade shall wear; Glory shall chase away its gloom, For Christ hath conquered there.

6 Walk in the light: and thine shall be
A path, though thorny, bright;
For God by grace shall dwell in thee,
And God Himself is Light.

Bernard Barton, 1826

1 Calm me, my God, and keep me calm, 4 Calm in the hour of buoyant health,

While these hot breezes blow;

Be like the night-dew's cooling balm

Upon earth's fevered brow.

Calm in my hour of pain;

2 Calm me, my God, and keep me calm; 5 Calm in the sufferance of wrong,

Let Thine outstretchèd wing

Be like the shade of Elim's palm

Beside her desert-spring.

3 Yes, keep me calm, though loud and

rude

The sounds my ear that greet,

Calm in the closet's solitude,
Calm in the bustling street;

Like Him who bore my shame,

Calm 'mid the threatening, taunting

throng

Who hate Thy holy Name;

6 Calm as the ray of sun or star
Which storms assail in vain;
Moving unruffled through earth's war,
The eternal calm to gain.

Rev. Horatius Bonar, 1857
