340. O Let him, whose sorrow

O Let him, whose sorrow

No relief can fiud,

Trust in God, and borrow

Ease for heart and mind.

Where the mourner weeping

Sheds the secret tear,

God His watch is keeping

Though none else is near.

God will never leave thee,

All thy wants He knows,

Feels the pains that grieve thee,

Sees thy cares and woes.

Raise thine eyes to heaven

When thy spirits quail,

When, by tempests driven,

Heart and courage fail.

When in grief we languish,

He will dry the tear,

Who His children's anguish

Soothes with succour near.

AH our woe and sadness,

In this world below,

Balance not the gladness

We in heaven shall know.

1 Jesu, Holy Saviour,

In the realms above

Crown us with Thy favour,

Fill us with Thy love.
