Though deep, O Lord, our sorrow

Though deep, O Lord, our sorrow

Published in 1 hymnal


Representative Text

1 Thou deep, O Lord, our sorrow
When earthly ties are rent,
We wait the glorious morrow
When life's last day is spent;
To see Thee, Lord, in glory
With all Thy loved ones there,
At home--O wondrous story!--
God's endless rest to share.

2 There we shall see the answer
To all Thy grief and shame;
Forever then in nerness
We'll magnify Thy name.
But now Thy love sustains us,
Sore though the hour of grief;
What solace, O Lord Jesus,
In Thee to find relief!

3 As resting in Thy will, Lord,
We prove Thy wondrous love;
The Spirit's pow'r and comfort
Lift our poor hearts above,
Beyond earth's mortal dwelling,
To yonder glory bright,
Where endless anthems swelling
Shall soon our hearts delight.
