In the day when silent sorrow - "God shall wipe away all tears"
(Horatius Bonar/Johannes Thomas Rüegg)

"God shall wipe away all tears."

1. In the day when silent sorrow
  on my eyelids sitteth sore,
then I hear the heavenly comfort,
  "Thou shalt weep no more, no more.
      God himself shall dry thy tears;
      God himself shall soothe thy fears. (PDF - Midi)

2. In the day when earthly weakness
  weighs thy weary spirit down,
all about thee seems a burden,
  all above thee seems a frown,
      God himself shall dry thy tears;
      God himself shall soothe thy fears.

3. In the day when sin oppresses,
  and the battle waxes strong,
when the victory seems doubtful,
  or triumphant seems the wrong,
      God himself shall dry thy tears;
      God himself shall soothe thy fears."

Horatius Bonar, "Until the day break", 1890, 82-83.
(1,4 too short: repetition of "no more" added.)
