[33].

Yes, this our life is plentiful in tears.

Though I am young, still I have suffered much.

My God, I thirst! and this world’s weary ways

Are but an arid desert unto me.

But at thy feet my soul finds her repose,

O tender Friend and Comforter Divine!

What matters it to me if I lose all,

But still keep thee, my dearest Saviour’s love!
