83t Vale of Sorrow

Tune: B. F. White, 1844

Words:

Meter: Particular Meter: 7,6,7,6,8,6,7,6

While in this vale of sorrow,
I travel on in pain;
My heart is fixed on Jesus,
I hope the prize to gain.
But when I come to bid adieu
To those I dearly love,
My heart is often melted —
It is the grief of love.
