Hymnal: Laudes Domini #1090 (1884) First Line: Why do we mourn departing friends Lyrics: 1 Why do we mourn departing friends
Or shake at death’s alarms?
’Tis but the voice that Jesus sends,
To call them to his arms.
2 Are we not tending upward, too,
As fast as time can move?
Nor would we wish the hours more slow,
To keep us from our love.
3 Why should we tremble to convey
Their bodies to the tomb?
There the dear flesh of Jesus lay,
And scattered all the gloom.
4 The graves of all the saints he blest,
And softened every bed;
Where should the dying members rest,
But with the dying Head?
5 Thence he arose, ascending high,
And showed our feet the way;
Up to the Lord we, too, shall fly
At the great rising-day.
6 Then let the last loud trumpet sound,
And bid our kindred rise;
Awake! ye nations under ground;
Ye saints! ascend the skies. Languages: English Tune Title: CHINA
Why do we [ye] [you] mourn departing [departed] [for dying] friends
