letra de when sorrows encompass me - crooked still
when sorrows encomp-ss me round
and many distresses i see
astonished i cry, can a mortal be found
surrounded with troubles like me?
few seasons of peace i enjoy
and they are succeeded by pain
if e’er a few moments of praise i employ
i have hours and days to complain
o! when will my sorrows subside?
o! when will my sufferings cease?
o! when to the bosom of christ be conveyed?
to the mansions of glory and bliss?
may i be prepared for that day
when jesus shall bid me remove
that i may in raptures go shouting away
to the arms of my heav’nly love.
my spirit to glory conveyed
my body laid low in the ground
i wish not a tear at my grave to be shed
but all join in praising around
no sorrow be vented that day
when jesus hath called me home
with singing and shouting let each brother say
“he’s gone from the evil to come.”
if souls disembodied can know
or visit their brethern beneath
my spirit shall join you, while singing you go
and leave all my cares in the grave
immersed in the ocean of love
my soul, like an angel shall sing
till christ shall descend with a shout from above
and make all creation to ring
our bodies, in dust shall obey
and swifter than thought shall arise
then, changed in a moment, go shouting away
to mansions of love in the skies
