Lyics

Peace, troubled soul, whose plaintive moan

Hath taught each scene the notes of wo;

Cease thy complaint, suppress thy groan,

And let thy tears forget to flow;

Behold, the precious balm is found,

To lull thy pain, to heal thy wound.



Come, freely come, by sin oppressed;

On Jesus cast thy weighty load;

In him thy refuge find, thy rest,

Safe in the mercy of thy God;

Thy God's thy Saviour -- glory word!

Oh, hear, believe, and bless the Lord!
