1. How tedious and lonesome the hours,
While Jesus, my Saviour, delays!
I’ve sought Him in solitude’s bow’rs,
And looked for Him all the long days.
2. He lingers–I pray tell me why
His chariot no sooner returns?
To see Him in clouds of the sky,
My soul with intensity burns.
3. I long to be with Him at home,
My heart swallowed up in His love,
On fields of New Eden to roam,
To dwell with my Saviour above.
