Author: George Rawson Hymnal: Laudes Domini #456 (1890) First Line: In the dark and cloudy day Lyrics: 1 In the dark and cloudy day,
When earth's riches flee away,
And the last hope will not stay,
Saviour, comfort me!
2 When the secret idol's gone
That my poor heart yearned upon,
Desolate, bereft, alone,
Saviour, comfort me!
3 Thou, who wast so sorely tried,
In the darkness crucified,
Bid me in thy love confide;
Saviour, comfort me!
4 Comfort me; I am cast down:
'Tis my heavenly Father's frown;
I deserve it all, I own:
Saviour, comfort me!
5 So it shall be good for me
Much afflicted now to be,
If thou wilt but tenderly,
Saviour, comfort me! Topics: Discipline and Sorrow; Afflictions; Christians Afflictions; Christians Disciplines; Christians Duties; Hope Under Afflictions; Afflictions; Christians Afflictions; Christians Disciplines; Christians Duties; Hope Under Afflictions Languages: English Tune Title: LAST HOPE
