Author: Miss Ida Hedrick Hymnal: Fair as the Morning. Hymns and Tunes for Praise in the Sunday-School #165 (1891) First Line: Lo, this world is full of sorrow Refrain First Line: Hear the promise, blessed promise! Lyrics: 1 Lo, this world is full of sorrow,
Here we find no lasting joy,
Gloomy storms of doubt come o’er us,
And temptations e’er annoy.
Refrain:
Hear the promise, blessed promise!
May it keep us from the fall!
“He that to the end endureth,
Shall be saved” once for all.
2 Faint not, brother, though thy burden
Daily grows more hard to bear;
Go and tell it all to Jesus,
He can lighten every care. [Refrain]
3 We are writing on the seashore,
Gazing on the faraway,
Where our friends in peace are dwelling
Safe in realms of endless day. [Refrain] Topics: Salvation; Trust and Confidence Languages: English Tune Title: [Lo, this world is full of sorrow]
Hear the Blessed Promise
