Rise, My Soul, And Stretch Thy Wings, Thy Better Portion Trace;
Rise From Transitory Things, Towards Heaven, Thy Destined 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 My Soul, Derived From God, Longs To View His Glorious Face,
Forward Tends To His Abode, To Rest In His Embrace.

Fly Me Riches, Fly Me Cares, Whilst I That Coast Explore;
Flattering World, With All Thy Snares, Solicit Me No More.
Pilgrims Fix Not Here Their Home; Strangers Tarry But A Night;
When The Last Dear Morn Is Come, They’ll Rise To Joyful Light.

Cease, Ye Pilgrims, Cease To Mourn, Press Onward To The Prize;
Soon Thy Savior Will Return, To Take Thee To The Skies:
There Is Everlasting Peace, Rest, Enduring Rest, In Heaven;
There Will Sorrow Ever Cease, And Crowns Of Joy Be Given.
