Within Our Darkest Night

It has been a while since I posted a song I think appropriate for times when we are feeling bad. I recently found a Church of England website called Mental Health Matters which has some resources for services and so on for people with mental illnesses. They listed a Taize chant called “Within Our Darkest Night” as a suitable one.

I love Taize music, I find it incredibly relaxing, as though I could float off to God on the wings of beautiful music. I have a YouTube video of it being sung, although there are no images, just to warn you. The words appear under the video.

Within Our Darkest Night

Within our darkest night,
you kindle the fire
that never dies away,
that never dies away.
Within our darkest night,
you kindle the fire
that never dies away,
that never dies away.
