81. Ninety-fifth

1 When I can read my title clear
To mansions in the skies,
I'll bid farewell to ev'ry fear,
I'll bid farewell to ev'ry fear,
And wipe my weeping eyes.

2 Should earth against my soul engage,
And fiery darts be hurled,
Then I can smile at Satan's rage,
Then I can smile at Satan's rage,
And face a frowning world.

3 Let cares, like a wild deluge, come,
Let storms of sorrow fall;
So I but safely reach my home,
So I but safely reach my home,
My God my heav'n, my all.
