Lyrics
Font size:
Asleep in Jesus! Blessed sleep,
From which none ever wake to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.
Asleep in Jesus! O how sweet,
To be for such a slumber meet;
With holy confidence to rest,
In hope of being ever blest.
Asleep in Jesus! Peaceful rest,
Whose waking is supremely blest;
No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour
That manifests the Saviour’s pow’r
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
From which none ever wake to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repose,
Unbroken by the last of foes.
Asleep in Jesus! O how sweet,
To be for such a slumber meet;
With holy confidence to rest,
In hope of being ever blest.
Asleep in Jesus! Peaceful rest,
Whose waking is supremely blest;
No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour
That manifests the Saviour’s pow’r
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
