The grief that comes we’ll learn to bear Until again the sun doth shine. For Adam feel that man might be, And men are that they may have joy. What gratitude to God we bring That mankind may have joy. Before the Lord, then, humbly go. His message will our spirits buoy. On us his blessings he’ll bestow, For “men are that they may have joy.†For Adam feel that man might be, And men are that they may have joy. What gratitude to God we bring That mankind may have joy.
