My Latest Sun Is Sinking Fast,
My Race Is Nearly Run;
My Strongest Trials Now Are Past,
My Triumph Is Begun.
Refrain:
Oh, Come, Angel Band,
Come And Around Me Stand;
Oh, Bear Me Away On Your Snowy Wings
To My Eternal Home;
Oh, Bear Me Away On Your Snowy Wings
To My Eternal Home.
I Know I'm Near The Holy Ranks
Of Friends And Kindred Dear—
I Hear The Waves On Jordan's Banks,
The Crossing Must Be Near.
I've Almost Reached My Heav'nly Home,
My Spirit Loudly Sings;
Thy Holy Ones, Behold, They Come!
I Hear The Noise Of Wings.
Oh, Bear My Longing Heart To Him,
Who Bled And Died For Me;
Whose Blood Now Cleanses From All Sin,
And Gives Me Victory.
