Amidst this night so wild, And bid him come where now we watch, 2 She lies upon her pillow, pale, 3 How gentle and how good a child 4 We love, we watch throughout the night, To aid, where need may be; We hope, and have despaired at times; But now we turn to Thee! 5 Send down thy sweet-souled angel, God! And bid him soothe our souls to-night, Baptism, Lord's Supper and Admission of Members. 105 S. M. L. H. SIGOURNEY.
