bid them rest in peace.
3 Often were they wounded
in the deadly strife;
heal them, Good Physician,
with the balm of life.
Every taint of evil,
frailty and decay,
good and gracious Saviour,
cleanse and purge away.

after weary fight;
shed on them the radiance
of thy heavenly light.
Lead them onward, upward,
to the holy place,
where thy saints made perfect
gaze upon thy face. Scripture: Hebrews 12:23 Used With Tune: CASWALL
