441 L.M. B. Beddome
“Jesus wept.” John 11. 35; Luke 19. 41; Heb. 5. 7
1
So fair a face bedewed with tears;
 
What beauty e’en in grief appears!
 
He wept, he bled, he died for you;
 
What more, ye saints, could Jesus do?
2
Enthroned above, with equal glow
 
His warm affections downward flow;
 
In our distress he bears a part,
 
And feels a sympathetic smart.
3
Still his compassions are the same;
 
He knows the frailty of our frame;
 
Our heaviest burdens he sustains;
 
Shares in our sorrows and our pains.
