How sweet, when by trials oppressed,
To 60 to our closet In prayer,
Unburden the Borrowing breast,
Commune with The Crucined there.
How sweet to take God at His word,
To feel that he ever is near;
To know we shall not be deferred
That "He waiteth his children to hear"
To dwell In the light of His love,
IT'LL He roll our great burden away;
To drink from the fountain above,
Make Jesus our strength and our stay.
OF who earth's great troubles could bear,
o'erburdened, unaidod, alone,
without consolation through prayer,
And help from the Infinite One2
