The latest sun is sinking fast, my race is almost run.
My strongest trials now are past, my triumph is begun.
Refrain:
O come, angel band, come and around me stand,
O bear me away on your snow-white wings to my eternal home.
I know I’m near the holy ranks of friends and kindred dear;
I’ve brushed the dew on Jordan’s banks, the crossing must be near.
I’ve almost gained my heavenly home — my spirit loudly sings.
The Holy Ones, behold, they come — I hear the noise of wings.
Jefferson Hascall
