171. The Comfort Song

1 Our Savior declar'd of the Father above,
He careth for you, He careth for me;
In tenderness, mercy, compassion and love,
He careth for you and me.

Chorus:
He careth for you He careth for you,
He careth for me, He careth for you,
He careth for you and me.

2 The lily, the sparrow, the hairs of the head,
He careth for you, He careth for me;
Are known to the Father, so Jesus hath said,
He careth for you and me. [Chorus]

3 Tho' willful and wayward, depraved and debased,
He careth for you, He careth for me;
Tho' shunned by your kindred, disowned and disgraced,
He careth for you and me. [Chorus]

4 Howver the sorrow, the pain, the distress,
He careth for you, He careth for me;
His presence abideth to comfort and bless,
He careth for you and me. [Chorus]
