The Death and Burial of a Saint

Author: Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #466 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Why do we mourn departed friends Lyrics: 1 Why do we mourn departed friends, Or shake at death’s alarms? ’Tis but the voice that Jesus sends, To call them to his arms. 2 Are we not tending upward too, As fast as time can move? Nor should we wish the hours more slow, To keep us from our love. 3 Why should we tremble to convey Their bodies to the tomb? There the dear flesh of Jesus lay, And left a long perfume. 4 [The graves of all his saints he blessed, And softened every bed; Where should the dying members rest, But with their dying Head?] 5 Thence he arose, ascending high, And showed our feet the way; Up to the Lord our flesh shall fly, At the great rising day. 6 Then let the last loud trumpet sound, And bid our kindred rise; Awake, ye nations under ground; Ye saints, ascend the skies.
