Jesus Hail

Author: Lewis Conger Lockwood Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12624 First Line: ’Tis a calm, still night Refrain First Line: O Jesus! dear Jesus! dear Jesus, hail Lyrics: 1 ’Tis a calm, still night, With the moon’s pale light Shining soft over hill and vale; But my heart, mute with grief, Looks up for relief, And a friend I in Jesus hail. Refrain: O Jesus! dear Jesus! dear Jesus, hail! Now my aching bosom has balm for woe, As I pass through life’s lonely vale. 2 O the cheek that glowed, As the rose tint blowed, See the hand of disease turn pale; And the death damp falls now, On my fevered brow, Yet a friend I in Jesus hail. [Refrain] 3 With Him I’ll be blest, In the land of rest, When my heart and my flesh shall fail; When this dust lieth low, I to Heav’n shall go, And a friend in my Jesus hail. [Refrain] 4 When o’er my grave, Flowers gently wave, As the stream ripples through the vale, Then with angels I’ll sing, And make Heaven ring, As a friend I in Jesus hail. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: LILLY DALE
