1. When we walk by faith,
Not sight,
Darkness is the same
As light,
2. And daytime is the same
As night –
When we walk by faith,
Not sight.
3. When we live in love,
Not fear,
Christ the Lord
Is always near,
4. To share our sorrows
Year by year –
When we live in love,
Not fear.

When I read this I thought of Marylin Baker the worship composer/singer, who is blind. For her and other blind Chistians walking is always by faith! That is quite a thought.
As I read this, I thought about the scripture (which you referenced) that darkness and the light are the same to God. To me, this means that God is God wherever you are, which is a great comfort to experience!
Exactly – you summed this up perfectly XXXXXXX
