My head is low, my heart is sad

Author: John S. Monsell Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #579 (1886) Lyrics: 1 My head is low, my heart is sad, My feet with travel torn, Yet, O my Saviour, thou art glad To see thy child return. 2 It was thy love that homeward led, Thine arm that upward stayed; It is thy hand which on my head Is now in mercy laid. 3 O Saviour, in this broken heart Confirm the trembling will, Which longs to reach thee where thou art, Rest in thee, and be still. 4 Within that bosom which hath shed Both tears and blood for me, O let me hide this aching head, Once pressed and blessed by thee. Topics: The Christian Unfaithfulness Lamented Tune Title: BEMERTON
