With tearful eyes I look around

Author: White Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #839 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Come unto Me Lyrics: 1 With tearful eyes I look around; Life seems a dark and stormy sea; Yet midst the gloom I hear a sound, A heavenly whisper, Come to me! 2 It tells me of a place of rest; It tells me where my soul may flee: Oh, to the weary, faith, oppressed, How sweet the bidding, Come to me! 3 Come, for all else must fail and die; Earth is no resting-place for thee; To heaven direct thy weeping eye; I am thy portion: Come to me! 4 O voice of mercy, voice of love! In conflict, grief, and agony, Support me, cheer me from above, And gently whisper, Come to me! Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30

Sing songs of holy ecstasy, To waft my soul on high! 2 When cold and sluggish drops Roll off my marble brow, Burst forth in strains of joyfulness, Let heaven begin below! 3 When the last moment comes, Oh, watch my dying face, And catch the bright, seraphic gleam Which o'er each feature plays. 4 Then, to my ravished ears, Let one sweet song be given-- Let music charm me last on earth, And greet me first in heaven. 5 Then close my sightless eyes, And lay me down to rest, And clasp my pale and icy hands Upon my lifeless breast. 6 Then round my senseless clay Assemble those I love, And sing of heaven, delightful heaven, My glorious home above.

Hark! the choral strains are ringing, Wafted on the balmy air; See the millions, hear them singing, Soon the pilgrim will be there.
