Lyics

Come, sing to me of heaven,

When I'm a-bout to die;

Sing songs of ho-ly ec-sta-sy,

To waft my soul on high.



CHO.- There'll be no sor-row there,

There'll be no sor-row there;

In heaven a-bove where all is love,

There'll be no sor-row there.



When the last moment comes,

Oh watch my dying face,

To catch the bright, seraphic glow

Which on each feature plays!



Then to my raptured ear

Let one sweet song be given;

Let music charm me last on earth,

And greet me first in heaven!
