When in darkest night, I all alone in tempest myself find,
When the reckoning has come, with truth unveiled for lies,
When the dagger pierces armor, and the poison thorn my side,
When grief has overrun, and anguish turned the tide,
When hate’s deceitful song echoes blindly in my mind,
When all is lost and hope is gone and I hear the child’s cry,
I beseech thee oh Lord! Hear my darkest prayer!
Make swift my sword and ready strength, give courage with a care,
Let iron blade strike down the hordes and legions all who dare,
And of Thy Power, Thy vessel sworn, Thy Truth will witness bear,
Hear me oh Lord! Forget me not! For all that’s good and fair!
Let the trumpets sound, as I am bound, your Knight, after the Light, forevermore I swear!
