WHEN gath'ring clouds around I view,

And days are dark, and friends are few,

On Him I'll lean, who, not in vain,

Experienced ev'ry human pain:

He feels our griefs, He sees our fears,

He trod Himself the vale of tears.

When vexing thoughts within me rise,

And, sore dismay'd, my spirit dies;

May He, who once vouchsafed to bear

The sick'ning anguish of despair,

My sorrows soothe, my weeping stay,

And wipe the burning tears away.

When sorrowing o'er some stone 1 bend.

Which covers all that was a friend,

And from his voice, his hand, his smile,

Divides me for a little while;

My Saviour sees the tear I shed,

For He did weep o'er Laz'rus dead.

And oh! when I have safely passed

Through ev'ry conflict but the last,

Still may He keep a watch beside

My bed of death (for He has died),

And close my eyes in hope and trust

Of rising glorious from the dust.
