Funeral occasions
Author: Trivetts Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Funeral Occasions First Line: Death, as a sleep or gentle doze Lyrics: 1 Death as a sleep or gentle dos,
Does every weary saint compose
Lays all its pain, and griefs remove,
Conveys the Soul to worlds above.
2 Where all its sigs and mournful cries,
With pained heart; and flowing eyes,
Are chang'd for pleasures lasting sweet
Nor can it more with sorrow meet.
3 Blest in the lamb's embrace it lies,
Praising its God above the sies;
In sparkling robes of glory bright,
Transporting joys and pure delight.
4 Thus with the growing concert join,
And seraphs in musick divine
'Tis rapture almost ravishing,
To hear the charming notes they sing.
5 Nor can those joys sublime be less,
They'r flowing streams of perfect bliss
Yet parents and relations dear,
Are loth their loving friend to spare.

Who reigns enthroned above;
The ancient of eternal days,
And God of love;

By earth and heav'n confessed
We bow and bless the sacred name
For ever blest.

I on that oath depend;
I shall, on eagle-wings upborne,
To heav'n ascend:
I shall behold God's face,
I shall God's pow'r adore,
And sing the wonders of God's grace
For evermore.
3 There dwells the Lord, our King,
The Lord, our Righteousness,
Triumphant o'er the world and sin,
The Prince of Peace;
On Zion's sacred height
The kingdom God maintains,
And, glorious with the saints in light,
For ever reigns.
4 The God who reigns on high
The great archangels sing,
And, "Holy, Holy, Holy," cry,
"Almighty King!
Who was, and is, the same,
For all eternity,
Immortal God, the great I AM,
All glory be."
