A Funeral Hymn

Hymnal: A Choice Collection of Hymns and Spiritual Songs #LIV (1774) First Line: My Life's a Shade, my Days apace decline Lyrics: 1 My Life's a Shade, my Days apace decline, My Lord is Life; He'll raise my dust again. Sweet Truth to me, I shall arise, and with these Eyes My Saviour see. 2 My peaceful Grave shall keep my Bones till that sweet Day, I wake from sleep, and leave my Clay. Sweet Truth to me, I shall arise, and with these Eyes My Saviour see. 3 My Lord, his Angels shall their golden Trumpets sound, At whose most welcome call, my Grave shall be unbound. Sweet Truth to me, I shall arise, and with these Eyes My Saviour see. 4 I said sometimes with Tears, ah, me! I'm loth to die, Lord, silence thou these Fears, my Life's with Thee on high. Sweet Truth to me, I shall arise, and with these Eyes My Saviour see. 5 What means my trembling Heart to be thus shy of Death? My Life and I shan't part, tho' I resign my Breath. Sweet Truth to me, I shall arise, and with these Eyes My Saviour see. 6 Then welcome harmless Grave, by thee to Heav'n I'll go, My Lord, his Death shall save me from the Flames below. Sweet Truth to me, I shall arise, and with these Eyes My Saviour see. Scripture: Job 19:25 Languages: English

My life's a shade, my days

Author: Samuel Crossman Hymnal: Church Book #562 (1890) Lyrics: 1 My life's a shade, my days Apace to death decline: My Lord is Life; He'll raise My dust again, even mine. Sweet truth to me! I shall arise And with these eyes My Saviour see. 2 My peaceful grave shall keep My form till that sweet day; I shall awake from sleep And leave my bed of clay. Sweet truth to me! I shall arise, And with these eyes My Saviour see. 3 Then welcome, harmless grave! By thee to heaven I'll go: My Saviour's Death shall save Me from the flames below. Sweet truth to me! I shall arise, And with these eyes My Saviour see. Topics: Death and Eternity Resurrection; Easter Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: CROSSMAN
