[00:16.62]My latest sun is sinking fast,
[00:18.72]My race is nearly run;
[00:23.97]My strongest trials now are past,
[00:29.43]My triumph is begun.
[00:32.73]Refrain:Oh, come, angel band,
[00:46.56]Come and around me stand;
[00:48.27]Oh, bear me away on your snowy wings
[00:49.47]To my eternal home;
[00:59.34]Oh, bear me away on your snowy wings
[01:00.51]To my eternal home.
[01:01.89]I know I’m near the holy ranks
[01:03.27]Of friends and kindred dear—
[01:07.17]I hear the waves on
[01:07.53]Jordan’s banks,
[01:12.12]The crossing must be near.
[01:12.63]I’ve almost reached my heav’nly home,
[01:16.17]My spirit loudly sings;
[01:19.50]Thy holy ones, behold, they come!
[01:30.36]I hear the noise of wings.
[02:01.08]Oh, bear my longing heart to
[02:01.71]Him,Who bled and died for me;
[02:16.98]Whose blood now cleanses from all sin,
[02:34.74]And gives me victory.

Of friends and kindred dear—

Oh, bear my longing heart to
