Resurrection and Eternal Life.
I said sometimes with tears, Ah me ! I'm loth to die ! Lord, silence Thou these fears : My life's with Thee on high.
Sweet truth to me !
I shall arise,
And with these eyes
My Saviour see.
What means my trembling heart, To be thus shy of death ? My Life and I sha'nt part, Though I resign my breath.
Sweet truth to me !
I shall arise,
And with these eyes
My Saviour see.
Then welcome, harmless grave ! By thee to heaven I'll go : My Lord His death shall save Me from the flames below.
Sweet truth to me !
I shall arise,
And with these eyes
My Saviour see.

CLIV.
Why do we mourn departing friends. Or shake at death's alarms ?
'Tis but the voice that Jesus sends To call them to His arms. |
