(Gadsby's Hymns) #464 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Death First Line: O! for an overcoming faith Lyrics: 1 O for an overcoming faith, To cheer my dying hours, To triumph o’er the monster, Death, And all his frightful powers. 2 Joyful with all the strength I have My quivering lips should sing, “Where is thy boasted victory, Grave? And where’s the monster’s sting?” 3 If sin be pardoned, I’m secure; Death has no sting beside; The law gives sin its damning power, But Christ, my ransom, died. 4 Now to the God of victory Immortal thanks be paid, Who makes us conquerors, though we die, Through Christ our living Head.

Correct my passions, mend my heart, And all my fears control. 6 And may I taste Thy richer grace, In that decisive hour. When Christ to judgment shall descend And time shall be no more.

Lyrics: 1 For ever with the Lord!" So, Jesus! let it be; Life from the dead is in that word; 'Tis immortality. Here, in the body pent, Absent from thee I roam: Yet nightly pitch my moving tent A day's march nearer home. 2 My Father's house on high, Home of my soul! how near, At times, to faith's aspiring eye, Thy golden gates appear! "For ever with the Lord!" Father, if 'tis thy will, The promise of thy gracious word Ev'n here to me fulfill. 3 So, when my latest breath Shall rend the vail in twain By death I shall escape from death, And life eternal gain. Knowing as I am known, How shall I love that word, And oft repeat before the throne, "For ever with the Lord!" Languages: English Tune Title: NEARER HOME

Lyrics: 1 Why should we start, and fear to die? What timorous worms we mortals are! Death is the gate of endless joy, And yet we dread to enter there. 2 The pains, the groans, the dying strife Fright our approaching souls away; We still shrink back again to life, Fond of our prison and our clay. 3 Oh, if my Lord would come and meet, My soul should stretch her wings in haste, Fly fearless through death's iron gate, Nor feel the terrors as she passed. 4 Jesus can make a dying bed Feel soft as downy pillows are, While on his breast I lean my head, And breathe my life out sweetly there!
