Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGHGIG JAKALASore in need was I of a faithful friend | A |
And it seemed to me that life | B |
Had come to its much desired end | A |
Just then God gave me a wife | B |
- | |
I had seen the beauty of fairy things | C |
And seen the women walk | D |
I had heard the voice of the seven sins | E |
And all the wonderful talk | D |
- | |
Ah the promising earth that seems so kind | F |
And the comrades with outstretched hand | G |
But did you ever stand alone | H |
In a black forsaken land | G |
Then the wonderful things that God can do | I |
One comes to understand | G |

How He turns the desert dust to a dream | J |
And the lonely wind to a friend | A |
And makes a bright beginning | K |
Of what had seemed the end | A |
'Twas in such an hour God placed in mine | L |
The moonbeam hand of a friend | A |
