Even in sor­row Christ is our friend;
Even in dan­ger He will de­fend;
Kindly our path­way He will at­tend,
If at His foot­stool we hum­bly bend.

Refrain

Come to the Sav­ior, oh, sin­ner, come,
Cling to Him close­ly, nor long­er roam;
He’ll guide you safe­ly to rest and home;
Do not re­ject Him: Come, sin­ner, come.

We are most hap­py if we en­dure
For by our chast­en­ing we shall be pure;
Sin may not harm, or Sa­tan al­lure,
If in His love we abide se­cure.

Refrain

He is the light, the truth, and the way,
Trusting in Him we can ne­ver stray;
Heed now His call to come and ob­ey,
Your night of sor­row shall change to­day.
