::::''1.'' :And let this feeble body fail, :And let it droop and die; :My soul shall quit the mournful vale, :And soar to worlds on high; :Shall join the disembodied saints, :And find its long sought rest, :That only bliss for which it pants, :In my Redeemer’s breast. ::::''2.'' :In hope of that immortal crown :I now the cross sustain, :And gladly wander up and down, :And smile at toil and pain: :I suffer out my threescore years, :Till my Deliverer come, :And wipe away His servant’s tears, :And take His exile home. ::::''3.'' :O what hath Jesus bought for me! :Before my ravished eyes :Rivers of life divine I see, :And trees of paradise: :I see a world of spirits bright, :Who taste the pleasures there; :They all are robed in spotless white, :And conquering palms they bear. ::::''4.'' :O what are all my sufferings here, :If, Lord, Thou count me meet :With that enraptured host to appear, :And worship at Thy feet! :Give joy or grief, give ease or pain, :Take life or friends away, :But let me find them all again :In that eternal day. '''Lyrics:''' Charles Wesley, ''Funeral Hymns'', Second Series, 1759.
