<p>Now the laborer’s task is o’er;<br>
|
|
Now the battle day is past;<br>
|
|
Now upon the farther shore<br>
|
|
Lands the voyager at last.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Father, in Thy gracious keeping<br>
|
|
Leave we now Thy servant sleeping.</p>
|
|
<p>There the tears of earth are dried;<br>
|
|
There its hidden things are clear;<br>
|
|
There the work of life is tried<br>
|
|
By a juster Judge than here.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>There the sinful souls, that turn<br>
|
|
To the cross their dying eyes,<br>
|
|
All the love of Christ shall learn<br>
|
|
At His feet in Paradise.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>There no more the powers of hell<br>
|
|
Can prevail to mar their peace;<br>
|
|
Christ the Lord shall guard them well,<br>
|
|
He Who died for their release.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>“Earth to earth, and dust to dust,”<br>
|
|
Calmly now the words we say;<br>
|
|
Left behind, we wait in trust<br>
|
|
For the resurrection day.</p>
