IF GRIEF FOR GRIEF CAN TOUCH THEE, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
Alternate Author Name(s): Bell, Ellis


IF grief for grief can touch thee,
If answering woe for woe,
If any ruth can melt thee,
Come to me now!


I cannot be more lonely,
More drear I cannot be!
My worn heart throbs so wildly
'Twill break for thee.


And when the world despises
When heaven repels my prayer
Will not mine angel comfort?
Mine idol hear?


Yes by the tears I've poured,
By all my hours of pain,
O I shall surely win thee,
Beloved, again.
