Author: Thomas Moore, 1779-1852; Thomas Hastings, 1784-1872 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #227 (2011) Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish Lyrics: 1 Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish,
Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish:
Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.
2 Joy of the desolate, light of the straying,
Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure!
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying,
“Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure.”
3 Here see the bread of life; see waters flowing
Forth from the throne of God, pure from above.
Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing
Earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove. Topics: The Christian Life Call to Discipleship; Consolation; Invitation Scripture: Hebrews 4:16 Languages: English Tune Title: CONSOLATOR
