Lyrics Of The Song Despair Not, O Heart
Song ID 3976
despair not o heart in thy sorrow but hope from Gods promises borrow beware in thy sorrow of sinning for death is of life the beginning the body is shrouded in mourning the garlands the casket adorning are emblems of hope that betoken o death that thy power is broken a dearly belovd one hath left us God hath in his wisdom bereft us but he will not leave us forsaken we know that the dead shall awaken when dawneth the glorious morrow this body that we view with sorrow a glorified form shall be given restored to its spirit in heaven the seed that in springtime is planted is hid in the ground but if granted a measure of sunshine and showers will spring into fruitage and flowers a gift to the churchyard we tender as dust to the dust we surrender returning the clay to its maker we lay it to rest in Gods acre a soul in that body abided a soul that in Jesus confided a soul that hath longed for salvation and now hath found hopes consummation o earth we consign to thy keeping this body with sorrow and weeping in peace to await resurrection when it shall arise in perfection o christ our souls maker and lover when time and earths travail are over thou closest the graves mournful story and callest thine own to thy glory
