Ah, my heart is heavy laden Weary and oppressed! Come to Me, saith One, "And coming, be at rest!" Come to Me, saith One, "And coming, be at rest!" Hath He marks to lead me to Him, If He be my guide? "In His feet and hands are woundprints And His side." "In His feet and hands are woundprints And His side." Is there diadem, as monarch, That His brow adorns? "Yes, a crown in very surety, But of thorns." "Yes, a crown in very surety, But of thorns." If I find Him, if I follow, What's my portion here? "Many a sorrow, many a conflict, Many a tear." "Many a sorrow, many a conflict, Many a tear." If I still hold closely to Him, What have I at last? "Sorrow vanquished, labor ended, Jordan past!" "Sorrow vanquished, labor ended, Jordan past!" If I ask Him to receive me, Will He say me nay? "Not 'til earth and not 'til heaven Pass away!" "Not 'til earth and not 'til heaven Pass away!"
