Saviour Christ, our woes dispel ; For some are sick, and some are sad ; And some have never loved Thee well, And some have lost the love they had ; And some have found the world is vain. Yet from the world they break not free ; it ^' 1! I 14 And Home have friends who yiv* them pain, Yet have not iiought a ffiend in Thee.
