John 16:32: I i I am not alone, because the Father is with, &c

A soul by man forsaken
May hang upon Thy cross,
For Thou hast undertaken
The friendless sinner's cause;
His comfort in affliction
That Thou regard'st Thine own,
And through Thy dereliction
He dwells with God alone.

My Lord by all deserted
Remembers the forlorn,
Binds up the broken-hearted,
And blesses those that mourn:
And if in my temptation
Thou dost my soul attend,
I '11 bear the tribulation
Which but with life shall end.
