| - | |
| Sometimes my heart by cruel care opprest | A |
| Faints from the weight of woe upon my breast | A |
| My soul embittered far beyond belief | B |
| As damned one drinking galling draughts of grief | B |
| Which boils and burns within without relief | B |
| While fervid flames inflict the wounds unhealed | A |
| With hellish horrors not to man revealed | A |
| When Peace and Joy seem wrapt in sable shrouds | C |
| And young Hope's heaven is black with lowering clouds | C |
| 'Tis then thy vision comes before my view | A |
| 'Tis then I see those beaming eyes of blue | A |
| And hear thy gentle voice in accents kind | A |
| And see thy cheerful smile before my mind | A |
| And taking heart I battle on anew | A |
| And thank my God for sending to my soul | D |
| His own blest soothing balm of peace again | E |
| Who sometimes still as in the days of old | A |
| By angels sends His blessings down to men | E |
