First Line: Affliction's faded form draws nigh Lyrics: Affliction’s faded form draws nigh, With wrinkled brow and downcast eye; With sackcloth on her bosom spread, And ashes scattered o’er her head. But deem her not a child of earth; From heaven she draws her sacred birth; Beside the throne of God she stands To execute his kind commands. The messenger of love, she flies To train us for our sphere, the skies; And onward as we move, the way Becomes more smooth, more bright the day. Her weeds to robes of glory turn, Her looks with kindling radiance burn; And from her lips these accents steal,— “God smites to bless, he wounds to heal!” Languages: English
