Lyics

It is the Lord--enthroned in light,
His claims are all divine;
He has an undisputed right,
To govern thee and thine.


Let then thine anxious doubts and fears
All yield to his control;
His tender mercies shall illume
The midnight of thy soul.


Then may'st thou close thine eyes in death
Free from distracting care;
For death is life--the grave is rest,
If Christ be with thee there.
