CHRISTIAN LIFE >> HOPE & COMFORT

Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish.

earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.

1
Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish.
come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish;
earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.

2
Joy of the desolate, light of the straying,
hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure!
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying,
“Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure.”

3
Here see the bread of life; waters flowing
forth from the throne of God, pure from above.
Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing
earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove.

Notes

We are all in trouble because of sin. We need to come to God for mercy and pardon. We need to bring our wounded heart to Him and tell about our anguish. At the seat of mercy every sorrow can be healed, every heartache can be cured, every hungering soul and thirsting sprit can be satisfied. (Lesson 1, 3rd Quarter 2021 -Wednesday, Rest in the New Testament, 6/30/2021)
