Reunited hearts in a moment so sweet
In a Quaker house George and Eliza complete
With gentle hands our fears are soothed away
In this safe haven we find strength today
Rachel's hands they work with tender care
Preparing for the journey we must dare
Simeon's voice a calming steady tone
In this kind house where we know we're not alone
"With you Eliza and our child so dear
We'll face the future casting off our fear"
"Through trials deep we'll find a brighter way
Our love and hope will never go astray"
"Is God on their side" George cried in despair
"Does He see all they do does He even care
They're rich they're happy they expect heaven's gates
While we lie in the dust and are crushed by their hate"
"They buy and sell and trade our blood
And God lets them in this merciless flood
They say the Bible's on their side
And in their churches they take pride"
"Friend George listen to this Psalm so true
It may soothe your soul bring peace anew
When I sought to understand it was too painful for me
That is until I entered in to God's sanctuary
It was only then that I saw their downfall
God had placed them where they could fall
He cast them down to their demise
And when He awakes their image He will despise
Yet I am always with You guided by Your hand
Guided by Your counsel by Your command
Afterwards You'll receive me in glory's grand
And in Your presence forever I'll stand"
"If this world were all there is you might ask where's the Lord
But He chooses those with the least reward
Trust in Him no matter what befalls
He'll make it right beyond these earthly walls"
"With you Eliza and our child so dear
We'll face the future casting off our fear"
"Through trials deep we'll find a brighter way
Our love and hope will never go astray"
With trust renewed I'll face the night
In God's guidance I'll find His might
Through trials deep and paths unkind
In His promise peace we'll find
