EN 242 Now Let Our Mourning Hearts Revive

Josh.1.2

Versi Version 1

1

Now let our mourning hearts revive,

And all our tears be dry;

Why should those eyes be drowned in grief

Which view a Savior nigh?

2

What though the arm of conquering death

Does God’s own house invade?

What though the prophet and the priest

Be numbered with the dead?

3

Though earthly shepherds dwell in dust,

The aged and the young,

The watchful eye, in darkness closed,

And mute th’instructive tongue.

4

The Eternal Shepherd still survives,

New comfort to impart;

His eye still guides us, and His voice

Still animates our heart.

5

“Lo! I am with you,” saith the Lord,

“My Church shall safe abide;

For I will ne’er forsake My own,

Whose souls in Me confide.”

6

Through every scene of life and death,

This promise is our trust;

And this shall be our children’s song,

When we are cold in dust.
