Tenderly call­ing them back.
Let sor­row be end­ed,
When the ran­somed will all meet ab­ove.
To the heart by grief o’er­tak­en,
Scatter kind words to the lone­ly,
“Let law the or­phan’s claim se­cure:
Room for the world in the arms of the Sav­ior,
To heal their sor­rows, Lord, des­cend,
Bid health to plant a rose.

The friend­less

Cheering the homes where they dwell;
O help some­bo­dy to­day!
Give some joy in their dearth,
Who in dark­ness dwell,
Go scat­ter kind words to the err­ing;
Protect the weak, as­sert their right,
There will He com­fort the poor and for­sak­en,
I come, I come at Thy com­mand,
To per­ish is his doom:
