Rabbe horowitz:

They heard hashem's voice

Moving in the garden

with the wind of day.

The man and his wife

hid themselves from hashem

Among the trees of the garden.

Hashem called to the man,

And he said, "where are you?"

All men must answer this.

They must know where they stand

In relation

to hashem's presence.

Either you move closer...

Or further away.

so many lonely, lonely,

lonely, lonely nights

I need the light,

I need the light

I know it's darkest

before the dawn

[ humming ]

so, here where today

greets tomorrow

I cross that bridge

I walk on forever

and I don't care

that the path is steep

and the journey's hard

I walk on

I walk on

when the days were dark

and the nights were long

I know in the light

that I can be strong

when the days were the dark

and the nights so long

I know in the light

I'm never alone

and I lay on my back

and count the stars

and look for a light

that will guide me on

I know it's darkest

before the dawn

and I lay where I may

to count the stars

knowing that I,

I'm never alone

and it's darkest

before the dawn

and even the stars so bright

may not have enough light

and if I should lose my way

and, oh,

when the morning comes

and the sun shines on

it's gonna shine on

shine on

shine on beauty

[ humming ]

'cause it's darkest

before the dawn

I'm in the light,

I'm in the light

I'm in the light,

I'm in the light

and I know that

it's darkness before the dawn
