    A hymn written by Joseph Irons in Zion’s Hymns (in common meter).

    “Comforter”

    1. When Zion’s sons in sorrow mourn,
    And foes and fears oppress;
    Their cries Jehovah will not scorn,
    Nor leave them comfortless.

    2. He sends his Spirit to impart
    A sense of pard’ning love,
    Drives doubts and darkness from the heart,
    And hills of guilt remove.

    3. The saints in every trying hour,
    Shall by his power receive
    Some cheering ray, some vital power,
    Their sorrows to relieve.

    4. He stoops to earth and comfort brings;
    Tells of a Saviour’s love;
    Then points us to eternal things,
    And lifts our hearts above.
