When the weary, seeking rest,
To Thy goodness flee;
When the heavy laden cast
All their load on Thee;
When the troubled, seeking peace,
On Thy Name shall call;
When the sinner, seeking life,
At Thy feet shall fall:

Refrain

Hear then in love, O Lord, the cry
In Heav�n, Thy dwelling place on high.

When the child, with grave fresh lip,
Youth, or maiden fir,
When the ag�d, weak and grey,
Seek Thy face in prayer;
When the widow weeps to Thee,
Sad and lone and low;
When the orphan brings to Thee
All his orphan woe:

Refrain

When the stranger asks a home,
All his toils to end;
When the hungry craveth food,
And the poor a friend;
When the widow weeps to Thee,
Sad and lone and low;
When the orphan brings to Thee
All his orphan woe:

Refrain

When the man of toil and care,
In the city crowd,
When the shepherd on the moor,
Names the Name of God;
When the learn�d and the high
Tired of earthly fame,
Upon higher joys intent,
Name the bless�d Name:

Refrain

When the worldling, sick at heart,
Lifts his soul above;
When the prodigal looks back
To his Father�s love;
When the proud man, in his pride,
Stoops to seek Thy face;
When the burdened brings his guilt
To Thy throne of grace:

Refrain
