jeremiah ingalls - christian song lyrics

Loading...

mine eyes are now closing to rest
my body must soon be removed;
and moldering, lie buried in dust
no more to be envied or loved

ah! what is this drawing my breath
and stealing my senses away?
o! tell me, my soul, is it death?
releasing me kindly from clay

now, mounting, my soul shall descry
the regions of pleasure and love
my spirit triumphant shall fly
and dwell with my savior above

o happy! thrice happy exchange!
my savior with eyes full of love
now beckons me—soon i shall range
the fields of bright glory above

o! break off these fetters of clay!
i long to be freed from this load:
lord jesus, i mourn thy delay
impatient to be with my god

each moment seems lingering and flow
while far from my home i must stay;
i long for those pleasures that flow
unceasing in regions of day
no more to be tempted by sin;
no longer by satan be vexed;
my conscience is peaceful within
and is by no passion perplexed

now speedily wafted on wing
this world in a moment i leave:
o death! where is now thy famed sting
and where is thy victory, o grave?

rejoice, for a brother’s deceased
our loss is his infinite gain;
a soul out of prison released
and freed from its bodily pain
