Lyics

Oh, if my Lord would come and meet,

My soul should stretch her wings in haste,

Fly fearless through Death's iron gate,

Nor feel the terror as she pass'd.

Jesus can make a dying bed

Feel soft as downy pillows are;

While on his breast I lean my head,

And breathe my life out sweetly there.

While on his breast I lean my head,

And breathe my life out sweetly there,

And breathe my life out sweetly there.
