Asleep in Jesus! Blessed sleep
From which none ever wakes to werp:
A calm and undisturbed repose
Unbroken by the inst of focs

Asleep in Jesus Oh, how sweet
To be for such a slumber meet!
With holy confidence to sing
That death has lost its venomed sting

Asleep in Jesus! Peaceful rest
Whose waking is supremely blest
No fear, no woe shall dim the hour
That manifests the Savior’s power

Asleep in Jesus! Oh, for me
May such a blissful refuge be:
Securely shall my ashes lle
Waiting the summons from on high

Asleep in Jesús Far from thee
Thy kindred and their graves may be
But thine is still a blessed sleep
From which none ever wakes to weep
