When the summer fruits were ripening,
and the harvest turning golden,
when the world was full of promise,
Jesus stood by me at night.
Putting all my fears to flight,
turning darkness into light

When the autumn winds were blowing,
and the leaves began their falling,
when the world was full of worries,
Jesus stood by me at night.
Putting all my fears to flight
turning darkness into light

Now the wintry days are colder,
and the night is fast approaching,
in a world that’s growing older,
Jesus be with me tonight.
Putting all my fears to flight,
turning darkness into light
