LyicsHappy soul! thy days are ended
All thy mourning days below;
Go, by angel guards attended,
To the sight of Jesus go!
Waiting to receive thy spirit,
Lo! the Saviour stands above;
Show the purchase of his merit,
Reaches out the crown of love.
Struggling through thy lastest passion
To thy dear Redeemer's breast,
To his uttermost salvation,
To his everlasting rest;
For the joy he acts before thee,
Bear thy transitory pain;
Die, to live a life of glory;
Suffer, with thy Lord to reign.
