| 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. | Church Book: for the use of Evangelical Lutheran congregations #562 (1890) A Choice Collection of Hymns and Spiritual Songs: intended for the edification of sincere Christians of all denominations #LIV (1774) |
