LyicsGo to thy rest in peace,
And soft be thy repose;
Thy toils are o'er, thy troubles cease,
From earthly cares in sweet release,
Thine eyelids gently close.
Go to thy peaceful rest;
For thee we need not weep;
Since thou art now among the blest,
No more by sin and sorrow prest,
But hushed in quiet sleep.
Go to thy rest, and while
Thy absence we deplore,
One thought our sorrow shall beguile,
For soon, with a celestial smile,
We meet to part no more.
