He sleeps in Jesus, peaceful rest

Author: Annie R. Smith Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #920 (1886) Lyrics: 1 He sleeps in Jesus, peaceful rest, No mortal strife invades his breast; No pain, nor sin, nor woe, nor care, Can reach the silent slumberer there. 2 He lives, his Saviour to adore, And meekly all his sufferings bore: He loved, and all resigned to God; Nor murmured at his chastening rod. 3 Does earth attract thee here? they cried; The dying Christian thus replied, While pointing upward to the sky, "My treasure is laid up on high." 4 He sleeps in Jesus soon to rise, When the last trump shall rend the skies; Then burst the fetters of the tomb, To wake in full, immortal bloom. 5 He sleeps in Jesus cease thy grief; Let this afford thee sweet relief That, freed from death's triumphant reign, In heaven he will live again.

Author of "She sleeps in Jesus, peaceful rest" in The Songs of Zion In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.
