448b The Grieved Soul

Tune: M. A. Hendon, 1859

Words: Joseph Hart, 1759

Meter: 7s,6s Double (7,6,7,6,7,6,7,6)

Come, my soul and let us try
For a little season
Ev’ry burden to lay by,
Come and let us reason.
What is this that casts thee down?
Who are those that grieve thee?
Speak and let the worst be known?
Speaking may relieve thee.
