When in the hours of lonely woe

Author: Josiah Conder Appears in 14 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 When in the hours of lonely woe I give my sorrow leave to flow, And anxious fear and dark distrust Weigh down my spirits to the dust; 2 When not e'en friendship's gentle aid Can heal the wounds the world has made O this shall check each rising sigh, That Jesus is forever nigh. 3 His counsels and upholding care My safety and my comfort are, And he shall guide me all my days, Till glory crown the work of grace. 4 Jesus, in whom but thee above Can I repose my trust, my love? And shall an earthly object be Loved in comparison with thee? Used With Tune: MELITA

There is sweet rest for feet now weary

Author: F. E. Belden Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 There is sweet rest for feet now weary, In the rugged, upward way; There is a morn when midnight dreary Shall be lost in perfect day. 2 For that blest morn our hearts our longing, When shall end earth's night of woe; When, thro' those pearly portals thronging, Mortal cares we'll leave below. 3 Soon to that city, bright, eternal, Weary pilgrims all shall go; Soon we shall rest in pastures vernal, Where life's waters ceaseless flow. 4 Father above, in mercy guide us To those mansions of the blest; Safe in the Rock of Ages hide us Till we gain our final rest.

When darkness gathers round thy way

Author: Annie R. Smith Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 When darkness gathers round thy way, As fall the shades of even; No star, with its mild, cheering ray, To chase the gloom, our fears allay, How sweet the light of heaven! 2 When toiling in the narrow way, By persecution driven, Beset with treacherous snares that lay To lead our wayward feet astray, How sweet the smiles of heaven! 3 When by earth's care and grief and woe The anguished heart is riven, And bitter tears of sorrow flow No soothing balm found here below, How sweet the joy of heaven! 4 And when our pilgrimage is o'er, The blessed promise given; When, borne on angels' wings we soar To meet the Saviour we adore, How sweet the home in heaven! Used With Tune: PEACEFUL REST

Christian, wherefore yield to sadness?

Author: Anon. Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The Christian Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 Christian, wherefore yield to sadness? Fix thy heart and hopes above; Look to Jesus, and with gladness Trust his gracious, pardoning love. Trials here will sorely press thee, Let thy trust on him be stayed: He will cheer, and guide, and bless thee, With his ever-present aid. 2 Think how kind, how condescending! Jesus calls himself thy Friend, From his throne in glory bending, He will every prayer attend. He will never, never leave thee, Through thy pilgrim days below; Then, at last, he will receive thee, And a crown of life bestow. Used With Tune: COMFORT
