Asleep In Jesus! Blessed Sleep,
From Which None Ever Wakes To Weep;
A Calm And Undisturbed Repose,
Unbroken By The Last Of Foes.
Asleep In Jesus! Oh, How Sweet,
To Be For Such A Slumber Meet,
With Holy Confidence To Sing
That Death Has Lost His Venomed Sting!
Asleep In Jesus! Peaceful Rest,
Whose Waking Is Supremely Blest;
No Fear, No Woe, Shall Dim That Hour
That Manifests The Savior’s Power.
Asleep In Jesus! Oh, For Me
May Such A Blessed Refuge Be!
Securely Shall My Ashes Lie,
And Wait The Summons From On High.
Asleep In Jesus! Far From Thee
Thy Kindred And Their Graves May Be;
But There Is Still A Blessed Sleep,
From Which None Ever Wakes To Weep.
