Lyrics: 1 O how blest are ye whose toils are ended! Who thro' death have unto God ascended! Ye have arisen From the cares which keep us still in prison. 2 Christ has wiped away your tears forever; Ye have that for which we still endeavor; To you are chanted Songs that ne'er to mortal ears were granted. 3 Ah, who would, then, not depart with gladness, To inherit heav'n for earthly sadness? Who here would languish Longer in bewailing and in anguish? 4 Come, 0 Christ, and loose the chains that bind us, Lead us forth and cast this world behind us! With Thee, th'Anointed, Finds the soul its joy and rest appointed. Topics: The Christian Life Death and Burial Languages: English Tune Title: BEATA
