He rescued me from the darkest night

He rescued me from the darkest night
and brought me into his glorious light.
To know his presence is my delight.
Hallelujah, he rescued me.

1. A joy that keeps overflowing-
A peace words cannot express.
My sin and guilt are washed away,
I share his righteousness.

2. The Father’s arms are around me-
the Spirit’s fulness within.
No condemnation now I fear,
I rest secure in him.

3. To Jesus Christ be the glory-
almighty Saviour and friend.
The love that bought me with his blood
will keep me to the end.
