SPECIAL OCCASIONS |
Asleep in Jesus! blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep; A calm and undisturbed repose, Unbroken by the last of foes.
Asleep in Jesus! 0 how sweet
To be for such a slumber meet! With holy confidence to rest In hope of being ever blest.
Asleep in Jesus! Peaceful rest,
Whose waking is supremely blest; No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour That manifests the Saviour's power.
Asleep in Jesus! Soon to rise,
When the last trump shall rend the skies; Then burst the fetters of the tomb, And wake in full, immortal bloom.
Asleep in Jesus! blessed sleep, |
Margaret Mackay, 1832 | William B. Bradbury, 1843 |
