He calls out aloud, "O dead, come forth!" In glory we rise to meet him. 4 O Jesus, draw near my dying bed And take me into your keeping And say when my spirit hence is fled, "This child is not dead, but sleeping." And leave me not, Savior, till I rise To praise you in life eternal. Used With Tune: DEN SIGNEDE DAG Text Sources: Translation The Lutheran Hymnal, Decorah, 1913, alt.
