LYRICS
Here there is balm for every tender heart
wounded by life;
Rest for each one who bore a valiant part
crushed in the strife.
I suffered there and held a losing fight
even to the end.
And know I know that it was very right
to suffer and be brave.
Here there is balm for every tender heart
wounded by life;
rest for each one.
