lyrics

O heart bereaved and lonely, whose brightest dreams have fled
Whose hopes like summer roses are withered, crushed, and dead
Though link by link be broken, and tears unseen may fall
Look up amid thy sorrow to Him who knows it all

O cling to thy Redeemer, thy Savior, Brother, Friend
Believe and trust His promise to keep you till the end
O watch and wait with patience, and question all you will
His arms of love and mercy are ’round about thee still

Look up, the clouds are breaking, the storm will soon be o'er
And thou shall reach the haven where sorrows are no more
Look up, be not discouraged, trust on, whate'er befall
Remember, O remember, thy Savior knows it all
Remember, O remember, thy Savior knows it all
