When I can read my title clear
To mansions in the skies
I bid farewell to every fear
And wipe my weeping eyes.
And wipe my weeping eyes
And wipe my weeping eyes
I bid farewell to every fear
And wipe my weeping eyes.
Should earth against my soul engage
And hellish darts be hurled
Then I can smile at Satan’s rage
And face a frowning world.
And face a frowning world
And face a frowning world
Then I can smile at Satan’s rage
And face a frowning world.
Let cares
like a wild deluge come
And storms of sorrow fall!
May I but safely reach my home
My God
my heav’n
my all.
My God
my heav’n
my all
My God
my heav’n
my all
May I but safely reach my home
My God
my heav’n
my all.
There shall I bathe my weary soul
In seas of heav’nly rest
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast.
Across my peaceful breast
Across my peaceful breast
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast.
