¶Liedtext

The pallid face of the dying child Beams with a lustrous light, As the pearly gates of the better land Are opened to his sight. And he hears the rush of mighty wings Descending in the air, ’Tis the Cherubim and Seraphim Who round his couch appear: And, “Holy, Holy, Holy Lord,” They breathe into his ear. They bear him up through the golden streets, While gladsome strains out-ring, For one more Seraph has joined the choir To praise the Heavenly King. There, where no pain or sorrow comes, Where the weary are at rest, The angel child in glory dwells And is for ever blest: Hallelujah, Rest thou beloved one, Rest, Rest, Hallelujah!
