Comfort to the Dreary

Author: Anon. Hymnal: Christ in Song #117 (1908) First Line: O, Comfort to the dreary! Lyrics: 1 O, Comfort to the dreary! O, Joy to the oppressed! "Come unto Me, ye weary, And I will give you rest." O, come with all your weakness, Come with your load of woe; And learn if him with meekness All righteousness to know. 3 Ye who the world have courted, And suffer'd from its spite; Ye who with sin have sported, And felt its serpent bite; Come, learn, your follies quitting, That this world's gain is loss; To Christ's light yoke submitting, Come, and take up the cross. 4 O come and make the trial; Christ's service is release; If hard the self denial, Its fruit is joy and peace. His word your faith defending, Shall serve you for the strife; Peace all your steps attending; The prime, eternal life!

O Comfort to the Dreary

Author: Josiah Conder Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #4734 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1. O comfort to the dreary! O joy to the oppressed! Come unto Me, ye weary, And I will give you rest. O come in all your weakness! Ye sons of guilt and woe; And learn of Him with meekness, Who stooped for us so low. 2. Ye slaves of servile error, Wearied with fruitless pains, Whose faith is doubt and terror, Believe, and lose your chains. Renounce the superstition To Christ’s light yoke preferred; And turn from vain tradition To His redeeming word. 3. Ye who the world have courted, And suffered from its spite; Ye who with sin have sported, And felt its serpent-bite; Come, learn, your follies quitting, That this world’s gain is loss; To His mild rule submitting, Who bore for you the cross. 4. O come, and make the trial! His service is release; If hard the self-denial, Its fruit is joy and peace. His grace, your souls defending, Shall nerve you for the strife: Peace all your steps attending; The prize, immortal life. Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA
