ORIGINAL ENGLISH VERSION: Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish, Come, at the shrine of God fervently kneel; Here bring your wounded hearts; here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope when all others die, fadeless and pure; Here speaks the Comforter, in God’s name saying, “Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot cure.” Come, ask the infidel what boon he brings us, What charm for aching hearts he can reveal, Sweet is that heavenly promise Hope sings us— “Earth has no sorrow that God cannot heal.” CHEROKEE TRANSLATION AS SUNG: 1. Those of you who feel bad, now go; He provided for you, come to him. that you may come to him alone that you may be healed by him alone all of you who feel bad. 2. come right away all you sinners, come to Jesus the anointed one. Blood poured from the beloved one. He has cleansed you from your sins
