The New National Baptist Hymnal (21st Century Edition) ‎#264

264. Come, Ye Disconsolate

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 heav'n 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 heav'n cannot cure."

3 Here see the Bread of Life, see 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 heav'n can remove.
