LAST SLEEP.

4.6. D.

J. BARNBY.

1. Sleep thy last sleep, Free from care and sorrow; Rest, where none weep, Till th' e-ter-nal morrow;

Though dark waves roll O'er the si-lent river, Thy faint-ing soul Je - sus can de-liv – er.

E. A. DAYMAN.

2 Life's dream is past,
All its sin, its sadness;
Brightly at last

Dawns a day of gladness.
Under thy sod,
Earth, receive our treasure,
To rest in God,
Waiting all His pleasure.

REST. L. M.

3 Though we may mourn Those in life the dearest, They shall return,

Christ, when Thou appearest! Soon shall Thy voice Comfort those now weeping, Bidding rejoice

All in Jesus sleeping. Amen.

2 Here in the body pent,

Absent from Him I roam,
Yet nightly pitch my moving tent
A day's march nearer home.

3 My Father's house on high,

Home of my soul, how near,
At times, to faith's foreseeing eye,
Thy golden gates appear.

4 Ah, then my spirit faints

To reach the land I love,
The bright inheritance of saints,
Jerusalem above.

5" For ever with the Lord;"

Father, if 'tis Thy will,.
The promise of that faithful word
E'en here to me fulfil.

6 So, when my latest breath

Shall rend the veil in twain,
By death, I shall escape from death,
And life eternal gain.

1 FOR all Thy saints, O Lord,

Who strove in Thee to live, Who followed Thee, obeyed, adored, Our grateful hymn receive.

2 For all Thy saints, O Lord, Accept our thankful cry,

Who counted Thee their great reward, And strove in Thee to die.

3 They all in life and death,

With Thee, their Lord, in view, Learned from Thy Holy Spirit's breath To suffer and to do.

4 For this Thy Name we bless,
And humbly pray that we
May follow them in holiness,
And live and die in Thee.
