Rise, My Soul, And Stretch Thy Wings;
Thy Better Portion Trace;
Rise, From Transitory Things,
Toward Heaven, Thy Native Place.
Sun, And Moon, And Stars Decay;
Time Shall Soon This Earth Remove;
Rise, My Soul, And Haste Away
To Seats Prepared Above!

Rivers To The Ocean Run,
Nor Stay In All Their Course;
Fire Ascending Seeks The Sun;
Both Speed Them To Their Source:
So A Soul That’s Born Of God
Pants To View His Glorious Face,
Upward Tends To His Abode,
To Rest In His Embrace.

Cease, Ye Pilgrims, Cease To Mourn;
Press Onward To The Prize;
Soon Your Saviour Will Return
Triumphant In The Skies:
Yet A Season, And You Know
Happy Entrance Will Be Given,
All Your Sorrows Left Below,
And Earth Exchanged For Heaven.
