Asleep through Jesus, blessed sleep
From which none ever wakes to weep;
A calm and undisturbed repose,
Where powerless is the last of foes.
Asleep through Jesus, oh, how sweet
To be for such a slumber meet,
With holy confidence to sing
That death has lost its venomed sting!
Asleep through Jesus, peaceful rest,
Whence waking we're supremely blest;
No fear, no woe shall dim the hour
That manifests the Saviour's power.
Asleep through Jesus: Yes, to be
From every earthly hindrance free,
While, in the consciousness of love
The spirit lives with Christ above.
