{{Vs|1}} Art thou weary, art thou languid, | |||
Art thou sore distressed? | |||
'Come to Me,' saith One, 'and, coming, | |||
Be at rest.' | |||
{{Vs|2}} Hath He marks to lead me to Him, | |||
If he be my Guide? | |||
In His feet and hands are wound-prints, | |||
And His side. | |||
{{Vs|3}} Is there diadem, as Monarch, | |||
That His brow adorns? | |||
Yea, a crown in very surety, | |||
But of thorns! | |||
{{Vs|4}} If I find Him, if I follow, | |||
What his guerdon here? | |||
Many a sorrow, many a labour, | |||
Many a tear! | |||
{{mdl}} | |||
{{Vs|5}} If I still hold closely to Him, | |||
What hath He at last? | |||
Sorrow vanquished, labour ended, | |||
Jordan passed! | |||
{{Vs|6}} If I ask Him to receive me, | |||
Will He say me nay? | |||
Not till earth and not till heaven | |||
Pass away! | |||
{{Vs|7}} Finding, following, keeping, struggling, | |||
Is He sure to bless? | |||
Angels, martyrs, saints, and prophets | |||
Answer, Yes! | |||
