Lyics

There is an hour of hallow'd peace

For those with care oppress'd,

When sighs and sorrowing tears shall cease,

And all be hush'd to rest.



'Tis then the soul is freed from fears

And doubts which here annoy;

Then they that oft had sown in tears

Shall reap again in joy.



There is a home of sweet repose,

Where storms assail no more;

The stream of endless pleasure flows 

On that celestial shore.



There purity with love appears,

And bliss without alloy;

There they that oft had sown in tears 

Shall reap again in joy.
