1.Come unto me when shadows darkly gather,When the sad heart is weary and distressed;Seeking for comfort from your heav'nly Father,Come unto me, and I will give you rest.2.Large are the mansions in my Father's dwelling,Glad are those homes that sorrows never dim;Sweet are the harps in holy music swelling,Soft are the tones that raise the heav'nly hymn.3.There, like an Eden blossoming in gladness,Bloom the fair flow'rs by earth so rudely pressed;Come unto him all ye who droop in sadness,"Come unto me, and I will give you rest."
