Speak Gently

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: A Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (15th ed.) #285 (1866) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Speak gently,—it is better far Lyrics: Speak gently,—it is better far To rule by love than fear; Speak gently,—let no harsh word mar The good we may do here. Speak gently to the young,—for they Will have enough to bear; Pass through this life as best they may, ’Tis full of anxious care. Speak gently to the aged one, Grieve not the careworn heart; The sands of life are nearly run, Let them in peace depart. Speak gently to the erring ones; They must have toiled in vain; Perchance unkindness made them so; O, win them back again! Speak gently,—’tis a little thing, Dropped in the heart’s deep well; The good, the joy, that it may bring, Eternity shall tell. Languages: English
