Luther Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Fellow voyager, cease complaining Refrain First Line: Cheer up, then, oh, fellow mortal Lyrics: 1 Fellow voyager, cease complaining, Look beyond this vale of tears; See the haven you are nearing, Quiet all your rising fears; Should this world prove dark and dreary, And you here no pleasure find, Look beyond the clouds that near thee, Look to God, who is so kind. Refrain: Cheer up, then, oh, fellow mortal, Never utter one complaint; Never will you pass the heav’nly portals, If you weary or grow faint. 2 Let not earthly care and sorrow Darken all life’s pathway o’er; There will dawn a brighter morrow, As you near the heav’nly shore; Hear ye not those angel voices, Calling you to follow on? See the happy throng rejoicing, As you tread the path alone. [Refrain] Used With Tune: FIUMICINO Text Sources: Songs of Gratitude by James Fillmore (Cincinnati: Fillmore Brothers, 1877)
