How far are the days that we sojurn on
And soon the dark cloud will be past
The souls that partake of a heavenly birth
In peace shall rest sweetly at last.
Their bodies shall slumber in Jesus awhile
Till the trumpet resounds thro' the sky
The bursting the fetters of death with a smile
They enter the mansions on high.
