Death to the Believer desirable

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #H16.II (1789) First Line: While on the verge of life I stand Lyrics: 5 While on the verge of life I stand, And view the scene on either hand, My spirit struggles with my clay, And longs to wing its flight away. 6 Where Jesus dwells my soul would be; And faints my much-lov'd Lord to see; Earth, twine no more about my heart, For 'tis far better to depart. 7 Come, ye angelic envoys, come, And lead the willing pilgrim home! Ye know the way to Jesus' throne, Source of my joys, and of your own. 8 That blissful interview, how sweet! To fall transported at his feet! Rais'd in his arms to see his face, Thro' the full beamings of his grace! 9 As with a Seraph's voice to sing! To fly as on a Cherub's wing! Performing, with unweary'd hands, The present Saviour's high commands. 10 Yet, with these prospects full in sight, We'll wait thy signal for the flight; For while thy service we pursue, We find a heaven in all we do.
