Cease, ye mourners, cease to languish
O�er the grave of those you love;
Pain and death, and night and anguish,
Enter not the world above.
While our silent steps are straying
Lonely through night's deepening shade,
Glory�s brightest beams are playing
Round the happy Christian�s head.
Light and peace at once deriving,
From the hand of God most high,
In his glorious presence living,
They shall never, never die.
Now, ye mourners cease to languish
O�er the grave of those you love;
Far removed from pain and anguish,
They are chanting hymns above.�
