Deathless principle ariseA
Soar thou native of the skiesA
Pearl of price by Jesus boughtB
To His glorious likeness wroughtC
Go to shine before His throneD
Deck His mediatorial crownE
Go His triumphs to adornF
Made for God to God returnG
-
Lo He beckons from on highH
Fearless to His presence flyH
Thine the merit of His bloodI
Thine the righteousness of GodJ
Angels joyful to attendK
Hovering round thy pillow bendK
Wait to catch the signal givenL
And escort thee quick to heavenL
-
Shudder not to pass the streamM
Venture all thy care on HimN
Him whose dying love and powerO
Stilled its tossing hushed its roarP
Safe is the expanded waveQ
Gentle as a summer's eveR
Not one object of His careS
Ever suffered shipwreck thereS
-
See the haven full in viewT
Love divine shall bear thee throughT
Trust to that propitious galeU
Weigh thy anchor spread thy sailU
Saints in glory perfect madeV
Wait thy passage through the shadeV
Ardent for thy coming o'erO
See they throng the blissful shoreP
-
Mount their transports to improveW
Join the longing choir aboveX
Swiftly to their wish be givenL
Kindle higher joy in heavenL
Such the prospects that ariseA
To the dying Christian's eyesA
Such the glorious vista FaithY
Opens through the shades of deathZ
