Author: Anon. Hymnal: Christ in Song #125 (1908) First Line: Come unto me when shadows darkly gather Lyrics: 1 Come unto me when shadows darkly gather,
When the sad heart is weary and distressed;
Seeking for comfort from your heav'nly Father,
Come unto me, and I will give you rest.
2 Large are the mansions in my Father's dwelling,
Glad are those homes that sorrows never dim;
Sweet are the harps in holy music swelling,
Soft are the tones that raise the heav'nly hymn.
3 There, like an Eden blossoming in gladness,
Bloom the fair flow'rs by earth so rudely pressed;
Come unto him all ye who droop in sadness,
"Come unto me, and I will give you rest."
