And when I my sins con­fess,

Let each pass­ing mo­ment ec­ho with a song.
There’s glad­ness in my heart.

There’s glad­ness in my heart.
Sing a hymn to Je­sus when the heart is faint,
A balm for thy ev­ery woe.
A balm for thy ev­ery woe.
Tell Him your need, for He lov­eth
In sick­ness and grief He pil­lows my head,
To be re­paid anon.
Tell all the pains and loss­es to Je­sus,
My pre­cious fa­mi­ly Bi­ble!
Unloved and un­cher­ished, they sink in­to woe,
Flitting o’er the sky;
And thought the poor be­reft;
Grace and par­don He of­fers you to­day,
Fill them with the Sa­vior’s love.
If He is mine, let friends for­sake,

com­fort

When I lie with­in my bed,
There, O my Lord, I know Thou art mine;
Many lives are lone­ly, you can make them glad.
A joy that con­stant springs,
To know I’m bought with blood di­vine;
A joy that con­stant springs,
If the work is sor­row, if the way is long,
So will I com­fort you,
So will I com­fort you,
No one can help you but Je­sus,
Nobody com­forts like Je­sus,
Or sinks them in the grave;
Hindered by doubt or pressed by temp­ta­tion,
When the sor­row-waves roll,
O Sav­ior, Thy heart must be break­ing with grief,
In the by and by!
For He ap­proved the gift.
Take Him now and for­ev­er­more be free;
Cheer us with the Sav­ior’s love.
He, the dis­pens­er of all good,
