A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief

Words By: James Montgomery

Music By: George Coles

A	poor	way-	far-	ing	man	of	grief

Hath	of-	ten	crossed	me	on	my	way,

Who	sued	so	hum-	bly	for	re-	lief

That	I	could	nev-	er	an-	swer	nay

I	had	not	pow'r	to	ask	his	name,

Where-	to	he	went	or	whence	he	came;

Yet	there	was	some-	thing	in	his	eye

That	won	my	love	I	knew	not	why.
