2. Go to the grave; at noon from labor cease;

And all the ransomed, by that narrow way,
Pass to eternal life beyond the sky.

Come from the heat of battle, and in peace, Soldier, go home; with thee the fight is won. 8. Go to the grave; for there thy Saviour lay In death's embrace, ere He arose on high;

Be thy pure spirit present with the Lord, Where thou for faith and hope hast per

And open vision for the written word.

High in heaven's own light she dwelleth; Full the song of tri-umph swelleth:

2. Pour not thou the bitter tear;
Heaven its book of comfort opeth;
Bids thee sorrow not, nor fear,

But as one who always hopeth;
Humbly here in faith relying,
Peacefully in Jesus dying,
Heavenly joy her eye is flushing,
Why should thine with tears be gushing?

3. They who die in Christ are blest;

Ours then be no thought of grieving;
Sweetly with their God they rest,

All their toils and troubles leaving;
So be ours the faith that saveth,
Hope, that every trial braveth,
Love, that to the end endureth,
And, through Christ, the crown secureth.

DOANE.

1. JESUS lives! thy terrors now
Can no longer, Death, appall me;
Jesus lives! and well I know,
From the dead he will recall me;

Omit the repeat.

Better life will then commenceThis shall be my confidence.

2. Jesus lives! to Him the throne Over all the world is given:

I shall go where He is gone,

Live and reign with Him in heaven; God is pledged, weak doubtings, hence! This shall be my confidence.

3. Jesus lives! I know full well,

Nought from Him my heart can sever;
Life, nor death, nor powers of hell,
Joy, nor grief, henceforth, for ever.
God will power and grace dispense-
This shall be my confidence.

4. Jesus lives! henceforth is death Entrance into life immortal; Calmly I can yield my breath;

Fearless tread the frowning portal; Thou, when faileth flesh and sense, Lord, wilt be my confidence!
