Hymns Supplied Through the Gracious Generosity
of the Cyber Hymnal Website
Words: John Ellerton, in Church Hymns, 1871.
Music: "Donne Secours," Genevan Psalter, 1551
O Son of God, our Captain of salvation,
Thyself by suffering schooled to human grief,
We bless Thee for Thy sons of consolation,
Who follow in the steps of Thee their Chief.
Those whom Thy Spirit's dread vocation severs
To lead the vanguard of Thy conquering host;
Whose toilsome years are spent in brave endeavors
To bear Thy saving Name from coast to coast.
And all true helpers, patient, kind, and skillful,
Who shed Thy light across our darkened earth,
Counsel the doubting, and restrain the willful,
Soothe the sick bed, and share the children's mirth.
Thus, Lord, Thy blessèd saints in memory keeping,
Still be Thy Church's watchword, "Comfort ye,"
Till in our Father's house shall end all weeping,
And every want be satisfied in Thee.
