Would you nev­er wea­ry,
Would you nev­er wea­ry,
Jesus will come again.
Far in the de­sert wild,
Bring re­demp­tion from on high?
Know you not the Fount is free?
Turns our sigh­ing in­to song.
Bright the beams that smile on me;
The beams of sal­va­tion His pro­gress il­lume,
Let no fears thy soul an­noy;
And His love will nev­er end.
And His love will nev­er end.
Till Christ shall come;
Duet—So­pra­no and Te­nor
The trum­pet call ob­ey!
Thro’ the ver­dant mea­dows flow.

Saddened hearts may there find rest,

For the migh­ty Vic­tor King!

drea­ry

Let the bless­èd sun­light in!
Let the bless­èd sun­light in!
Pray for the reign of right;
Suffering and sin de­filed,
And the dead and dy­ing save?
Guilty sin­ner, hark! ’tis He!
Soon we bid fare­well to pain;
Far, far at sea.
The rose and the myr­tle will sud­den­ly bloom,
Thou shalt reap the fruits of joy.
Full of hope, or sha­dowed be,
Full of hope, or sha­dowed be,
Till Christ shall come,
As in sad­ness we are wait­ing for the dawn,
To watch, and fight, and pray.
By the shades of death o’er­spread,
There is nev­er a night so long,
Pillowed on the Sav­ior’s breast.
Tho’ the way be long and wea­ry,
Heav’nly vi­sions fill the way;
