Comfort            Hymn n° 293           « The Hymnal »

Author : Thomas Moore and Thomas Hastings,  Composer : Samuel Webbe

1- Come ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish,

Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel;

Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish;

Earth has no sorrows that heaven cannot heal.

2- Joy of the desolate, Light of the straying,

Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure!

Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying,

« Earth has no sorrows that heaven cannot cure.»

3- Here see the Bread of Life ; see waters flowing

Forth from the throne of God, pure from above:

Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing

Earth has no sorrows but heaven can remove.
