XVIII. The Soul departing

1 Happy Soul, thy days are ended,
All thy mourning days below;
Go, by angel guards attended
To the sight of Jesus go! Hallelujah Amen.

2 Waiting to receive thy spirit,
Lo! the Saviour stands above,
Shows the purchase of his merit,
Reaches out the crown of love. Hallelujah, Amen.

3 Struggle through thy latest passion
To thy dear Redeemer's breast,
To his uttermost salvation
To his everlasting rest: Hallelujah, Amen.

4 For the joy he sets before thee,
Bear a momentary pain,
Die, to live the life of glory,
Suffer, with thy Lord to reign. Hallelujah. Amen.
