A thou hast testified of Me in Jerusalem so must thou bear	A
witness also at Rome Acts xxiii	B
	-
	-
Beneath the burning eastern sky	C
The Cross was raised at morn	D
The widowed Church to weep stood by	C
The world to hate and scorn	D
	-
Now journeying westward evermore	E
We know the lonely Spouse	B
By the dear mark her Saviour bore	E
Traced on her patient brows	B
	-
At Rome she wears it as of old	F
Upon th' accursed hill	G
By monarchs clad in gems and gold	F
She goes a mourner still	G
	-
She mourns that tender hearts should bend	H
Before a meaner shrine	I
And upon Saint or Angel spend	H
The love that should be thine	I
	-
By day and night her sorrows fall	J
Where miscreant hands and rude	K
Have stained her pure ethereal pall	L
With many a martyr's blood	M
	-
And yearns not her parental heart	N
To hear THEIR secret sighs	B
Upon whose doubting way apart	N
Bewildering shadows rise	B
	-
Who to her side in peace would cling	O
But fear to wake and find	P
What they had deemed her genial wing	O
Was Error's soothing blind	P
	-
She treasures up each throbbing prayer	A
Come trembler come and pour	E
Into her bosom all thy care	A
For she has balm in store	E
	-
Her gentle teaching sweetly blends	B
With this clear light of Truth	Q
The aerial gleam that Fancy lends	B
To solemn thoughts in youth	Q
	-
If thou hast loved in hours of gloom	R
To dream the dead are near	S
And people all the lonely room	R
With guardian spirits dear	S
	-
Dream on the soothing dream at will	G
The lurid mist is o'er	T
That showed the righteous suffering still	G
Upon th' eternal shore	E
	-
If with thy heart the strains accord	U
That on His altar throne	V
Highest exalt thy glorious Lord	U
Yet leave Him most thine own	V
	-
Oh come to our Communion Feast	W
There present in the heart	N
As in the hands th' eternal Priest	W
Will His true self impart	N
	-
Thus should thy soul misgiving turn	X
Back to the enchanted air	A
Solace and warning thou mayst learn	X
From all that tempts thee there	A
	-
And oh by all the pangs and fears	B
Fraternal spirits know	Y
When for an elder's shame the tears	B
Of wakeful anguish flow	Y
	-
Speak gently of our sister's fall	J
Who knows but gentle love	Z
May win her at our patient call	J
The surer way to prove	A2
