If deep in the night (if deep in the night)   You hear a voice calling   Lost and alone (lost and alone)   Barely able to speak      With each weary step (with each weary step)   Through cold shadows they stumble   Blindly along (blindly along)   Frail, hopeless and weak      Won't you set out a traveler's lantern   Just a small light that they might see   To guide them back home   Before they wander   Into the dark billows   That crash on the sea      At dawn's rise you may find (at dawn's rise you may find)   The footprints of angels   Brought to fellowship there (brought to fellowship there)   By your mercy lamp's flame      Walking beside (walking beside)   The weary soul life's forgotten   Bringing comfort and love (comfort and love)   And gently leading their way      Won't you set out a traveler's lantern   Just a small light that they might see   To guide them back home   Before they wander   Into the dark billows   That crash on the sea      --- Instrumental ---      Won't you set out a traveler's lantern   Just a small light that they might see   To guide them back home   Before they wander   Into the dark billows   That crash on the sea...
