<poem>
My flesh shall slumber in the ground,
Till the last Trumpet joyful sound,
Then burst the Chains with sweet surprise,
And in my Savior’s Image rise.
This life’s a dream, an empty show,
but the bright world to which I go
Hath Joys substantial and sincere.
When shall I wake and find me there?
</poem>

My flesh shall slumber in the ground,
Till the last Trumpet joyful sound,
Then burst the Chains with sweet surprise,
And in my Savior’s Image rise.
This life’s a dream, an empty show,
but the bright world to which I go
Hath Joys substantial and sincere.
When shall I wake and find me there?
