The Psalm-singer's amusement ‎#48

48. my flesh shall slumber in the Ground

my flesh shall slumber in the ground,
till the last Trumpet's joyful sound;
then Burst the Chains with sweet surprize,
and in my saviour's image rise

this life's a dream an empty show
but the bright world to which I go
hath joys substantial and sincere
when shall I wake and find me there
