Christian Worship Blessed Are The Dead, Who Die In The Lord.
Hear what the voice from heaven proclaims,
For all the pious dead;
Sweet is the savor of their names,
And soft their sleeping bed.
They die in Jesus, and are blessed;
How kind their slumbers are!
From sufferings and from sin released,
And freed from every snare.
Far from this world of toil and strife,
They’re present with the Lord!
The labors of their mortal life
End in a large reward.
