Author: Jane Crewdson (1809-1863) Hymnal: The Hymnal #295 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Hymnal Lyrics: 1 There is no sorrow, Lord, too light
To bring in prayer to Thee;
There is no anxious care too slight
To wake Thy sympathy.
2 Thou, who hast trod the thorny road,
Wilt share each small distress;
The love which bore the greater load,
Will not refuse the less.
3 There is no secret sigh we breathe,
But meets Thine ear divine;
And every cross grows light beneath
The shadow, Lord, of Thine.
4 Life's ills without, sin's strife within,
The heart would overflow,
But for that love which died for sin,
That love which wept with woe.
Amen. Topics: The Life in Christ Comfort; Christ Presence, His Living; Comfort; Funeral Services; Prayer and Intercession Tune Title: WIGTOWN
