TRUST.
WEEP no more—weep no more,Oh thou child of sorrow,Weeping 'dureth for a night,But joy comes on the morrow.As sunshine ever after rain,And spring-time follows snow,So gladness, after grief, remainsTo cheer us here below.
Weep no more—weep no more,Thou for lost ones mourning,Let thy tears be changed to smiles,Be thy hopes returning.Look to Heaven with eye of faith,Which never gazed in vain,List to Jesus, when He saith,Thy friend shall rise again.
Weep no more—weep no more,Thou for pardon thirsting,Lying low beneath the cross,Heart with sorrow bursting—Drive forever from the breastAll despairing feeling,Taste the balm of heavenly restFor the nations' healing.
Weep no more—weep no more,Mortal weak and moaning,With daily burden overborne,Hush thy helpless groaning—He, who assigned the burden placeGives strength to bear the load,And joyous trust befits the raceSo well-beloved of God.
