489- Asleep in Jesus!

MIDI	MP3	Partition

1
Asleep in Jesus! blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.

2
Asleep in Jesus! 0 how sweet
To be for such a slumber meet!
With holy confidence to rest
In hope of being ever blest.

3
Asleep in Jesus! Peaceful rest,
Whose waking is supremely blest;
No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour
That manifests the Saviour's power.

4
Asleep in Jesus! Soon to rise,
When the last trump shall rend the skies;
Then burst the fetters of the tomb,
And wake in full, immortal bloom.
