Dwight Yoakam - The Darkest Hour Lyrics
The darkest hour is just before dawn
The narrow way leads home
Lay down your soul at Jesus feet
The darkest hour is just before dawn.
Of a day that's almost gone
Still darkness falls around me
And we must journey on.
[Chorus x3:]
Like a shepherd out on the mountain
A-watching his sheep down below
He's coming back to claim us
Will you be ready to go?

Dwight Yoakam The Darkest Hour Comments
If there is a purse singer and better looking man, GOD kept him in heaven after he made him. Knowing he is born again is iceing on the cake.
I just love the white Yoakam his singing and the way he dances when he sings
Love that twang in his voice 💕💕💕💕
DY is my all time favorite country singer since 1983 and 84 when he showed on Hee-Haw show Every Since then he became my favorite.... Was only 10 now I'm 44. Good job Dwight.
Going through a lot of drama and have a great amount of stress and fear, this song helps me a bit.
Love the song Dwight
Good singer he is
Like that duster he's got on, Dwights the best💗
No one can ever top or replace Dwight Yoakam
Absolutely love Dwight ❤
i am one of his truest fans, i have had every song he played and all the shows he done as well.
Luv this tune, also the coat is fabulous!!!
Love Dwight's version. I'm adding this to my playlist.
This is Ralph Stanley singing harmony, with Dwight as his guest, from the Clinch Mountain Country album.
Dwight puts a great high-lonesome bluegrass "scald" (as Ralph says) on it, as his roots (thankfully) betray.
I love this song so much. It's the first time I've heard Dwight sing it. 💜💜💜💜💜
this excellent love him
In his heart dwight is a good ol country boy.
That was pretty Dwight.
LOVE the bluegrass!
really enjoyed it -thanks!
love this song...loved the soundtrack....love D wight ;-)
Thanks for sharing this Dwight song. Dwight Yoakam is my favourite country musician next to the late Johnny Cash.
Dwight's twang is gorgeous on this song. I noticed on 3 Pears that he's lost some of that but his voice and songs are just as gorgeous. Hope he puts out a new album soon.
Thanks for posting this.
wow wow wow
Razzle dazzle
"Beautiful"
This version of 'The Darkest Hour' appears on Disc Two of the CD Set entitled: "Clinch Mountain Country" - Ralph Stanley and Friends. I too prefer this performance of this song a slight bit over the version that was featured in Dwight's film "South of Heaven West of Hell" and on the soundtrack CD from the film. Of course since Dwight sings in both versions, there are both exceptional performances.
Stanly is singing with Dwight.
beautiful, as always.
thank you yoakam. for all of these.
I love this version of Dwight's. He has the most soulful voice in Country Music!
This was excellent Song yet!
