Lyics1 WITH tearful eyes I look around;
Life seems a dark and stormy sea;
Yet 'midst the gloom I hear a sound,
A heav'nly whisper, Come to me.
2 It tells me of a place to rest,
It tells me where my soul may flee.
O to the weary, faint, opprest,
How sweet the bidding, Come to me!
3 When nature shudders, loth to part
From all I love, enjoy and see,
When a faint chill steals o'er my heart,
A sweet voice utters, Come to me.
4 Come, for all else must fail and die;
Earth is no resting place for thee;
Heav'nward direct thy weeping eye;
I am thy portion; Come to me.
5 O voice of mercy, voice of love!
In conflict, grief and agony,
Support me, cheer me from above,
And gently whisper, Come to me.
