Lyics

THINE earthly rests, O Lord, we love,

But there's a nobler rest above;

To that our longing souls aspire,

With cheerful hope and strong desire.



No more fatigue, no more distress,

Nor sin nor death shall reach the place,

No groan shall mingle with the songs

Which warble from immortal tongues.
