The Dear Heathen Girl

Author: Mrs. L. V. Haulman Hymnal: JS1892 #64 (1892) First Line: How can I be happy, How can I be gay Lyrics: 1 How can I be happy, How can I be gay, While over the wide, rolling sea, From the myriad islands and hands far remote Sweet voices are calling to me; From afar where the ice peaks rear their heads, Or the Ganges laps and purls, With sobs and with pleadings for life and for hope Comes the voice of the dear heathen girl. 2 No welcome awaits her, no deep tenderness Makes blessed the day of her birth, No place has the maiden, no joy and no love, No honor in heaven or on earth; Oh, my heart, how it thrills with its pity and pain! How I long those strong shackles to hurl To the darkness that forged them, and out of the gloom Of her night lead the dear heathen girl. 3 "Ye shall suffer the little ones," Jesus hath said, "To come unto me and be blessed," But how can they come who know naught of the way To the Saviour who lovingly pressed To the heart of a God all the little ones! then, Oh, send where the forest smoke curls, Send hope to the mountains and deserts and plains, Send Christ to the dear heathen girl.

I lay my griefs on Jesus, My burdens and my cares; He from them all releases, He all my sorrows shares. He from them all releases, He all my sorrows shares. 3 I rest my soul on Jesus, This weary soul of mine; His right hand me embraces, I on his breast recline. I love the name of Jesus, Immanuel, Christ the Lord; Like fragrance on the breezes, His name abroad is poured, Like fragrance on the breezes, His name abroad is poured. 4 I long to be like Jesus, Meek, loving, lowly, mild; I long to be like Jesus, The Father's holy child. I long to be with Jesus Amid the heavenly throng, To sing with saints his praises, And learn the angels' song. To sing with saints his praises, And learn the angels' song.
