I wait a few sorrowful years,
And then I no longer shall mourn.
But flee from the valley of tears,
A way I shall never return;
My days are all vanished away,
Broke off the designs of my heart,
No longer on earth I delay.
Or linger as loath to depart.
My days are extinguished and gone—
My time as a shadow is fled,
And gladly I lay myself down
To rest with the peaceable dead:
The dead ever-living attend.
Whose dust is all safe in the tomb.
And many a glorifi'd friend
Is ready to welcome me home.
