Thou Lord of death! O be thy presence nearer
When and in thy last, long night I close my eyes
He thinks of that as all-awful hour serenely
When all the world's gay shall decay;
And thence look forward to that brighter morning
Which ushers in a holier fairer day:
To Thee my God I live! – & in Thee dying,
Sink in the tomb – & feel no rude alarms;
An Angel sent from heaven then fluttered o'er me
And I shall sleep serenely in Thy arms
