Lyics

Among the mountain trees
The winds were whispering low,
And night's ten thousand harmonies,
Were harmonies of woe;
A voice of grief was on the gale,
It came from Kedron's gloomy vale.


It was the Savior's prayer
That on the silence broke,
Imploring strength from heaven to bear
The sin avenging stroke,
As in Gethsemane he knelt,
And pangs unknown his bosom felt.
