[Music]
Drooping souls, no longer grieve,
Heaven is propitious;
If in Christ you do believe,
You will find him precious.
Jesus now is passing by,
Calls the mourner to him,
Brings salvation from on high;
Now look up and see him.
For the complete text see 'Lebanon' in this collection. This song was
taken into the _Southern Harmony_ from the _Dover Selection_. The tune
is related to 'Maid Freed From the Gallows', Thomas, p. 164, and to
the old Irish 'Tell Me Dear Eveleen', in _A Select Collection of
Original Irish Airs_, No. 6, composed by Beethoven.
