Of the sad heart that comes to thee for rest;

Cares of to-day, and bur-dens of to-mor- row,

Bless ings em-plored, and sins to be con - fessed ;

We come be - fore thee at thy gracious word,

And lay them at thy feet; thou knowest Lord.
Thou knowest all the past : how long and blind - ly

On the dark mountains the lost wanderer strayed ;

How the good Shep-herd followed, and how kind - ly,

He bore it home, up - on his Shoulders laid ;

And healed the bleed - ing wounds,and soothed the pain,

And bro't back life,and hope,and strength a-gain.Thou knowest all the pres-ent; each tempta -tion,

Each toil-some du ty, each fore-bod-ing fear;

All to each one as- signed of trib - u - la - tion,

Or to be - lov ed ones, than self more dear ;

All pen-sive memories, as we jour-ney on,

Long- ings for vanished smiles and voic-es gone. A-men.
