He speaks a word of match­less worth;
Your heart shall live, ye saints that seek the Lord;
And sympathy! (What a Savior)
One per­fect God-head, love that nev­er fail­eth,
We shall rest on that beau­ti­ful shore.
His peace is des­cend­ing, abun­dant, nev­er end­ing;
With His help and heal­ing for the lame, the blind,
Then, sin­ner, come home; the feast is all rea­dy;
The poor and des­ti­tute?

the needy

Give them aid and make them glad;
Those in dis­tress the Lord will not des­pise.
Lots of tender love (to the little ones)
Hope of all liv­ing.
The lame, and the halt and the blind,
From sea un­to sea shall He spread His do­min­ion,
Who is this that com­eth, spurn­ing earth­ly gain,
The worst are in­vit­ed, all wel­come will be;
Protect the fa­ther­less,
