Christ in Song

  1. 12Come Unto MeO ye heart bowed down with sorrow, O you weary, and oppressed for sight! There's gladness in To-morrow, In your darkness there is light; In your Gethsemane of anguish, Gold Christ the Healer goes: all them in Co-dem-na-tion? Re- he hears are sore vex-er, in peace is love of rest; In peace there is love and light.

Hymns and Tunes 1876

  1. 273Weeping endures but for a nightWeeping endures but for a night, Joy cometh with the morning light; Joy cometh of celestial birth, Unclothed by the blight of earth.
  2. 297Day of glory, when shall we beholdDay of glory, when shall we behold Earth overwhelmed with thy splendor untold? Dark is this desert, and weary our road; Oh! for that day-spring that cometh from God! Deep are earthly shadows, its sorrows and gloom; Oft is its gladness laid low in the tomb. Joys and sufferings, like shadows depart, Griefs and afflictions abide in the heart.
  3. 299Tis the midst of temptation, and sorrow, and strifeTis the midst of temptation, and sorrow, and strife, And evils unnumbered, of this bitter life, I look for a blessed earth, free from all care, A home upon earth's surface, with Jesus a living all there.
