When death appears before my sight

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and A Liturgy #488 (1814) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When death appears before my sight, In all his dire array; Unequal to the dreadful fight, My courage dies away. 2 How shall I meet this potent foe, Whose frown my soul alarms? Dark horror sits upon his brow, And vict'ry waits his arms. 3 But see my glorious Leader nigh! Jesus, my Saviour lives: Before him death's pale terrors fly, And my faint heart revives. 4 O may I meet the final hour With fortitude divine! Sustain'd by God's almighty pow'r, The conquest must be mine. 5 Lord! I commit my soul to thee: Accept the sacred trust; Receive this nobler part of me, And watch my sleeping dust. 6 O let me join angelick lays, And, with the blissful throng, Resound salvation, pow'r, and praise, In everlasting song!
