But Christ my joy heals every woe,

In Him I live and fear no foe.

"The night is dark and sad to me,

But even in the gloom I see

My Saviour bright who died to free

My soul from misery.

"Though He has taken those above

Who once have cheered me with their love,

Clad in the robe His hands have wove,

They safely rest, where'er I rove.
