Early Sunset
Early in the afternoon
the sun is setting low.
Silhouetting, golden crown
to bring the night we know.

The sun is setting on this day.
The night will show its will
when the light has naught to say.
Its absence, dark will fill.

To hold a candle when the deeds
of darkness flood about
is weariness amid our needs.
It's prone to tempt with doubts.

But when at last long, lonely night
gives way to wondrous day,
we'll see our joy or ling'ring plight
with one Truth, that we say,

"The earthly candlesticks don't hold
a candle to The Lord.
This King fore'er is lasting bold.
It's stated in His Word."
