That solemn hour will come for me,
When, though their charms I own,
All human ties resigned must be;
For I must die alone.
All earthly pleasures will be o'er,
All earthly labours done,
And I shall tread the eternal shore,
And I must die alone!
But, oh, I will not view with dread
That shadowy vale unknown:
I see a light within it shed;
I shall not die alone!
One will be with me there, whose voice
I long have loved and known;
To die is now my wish, my choice:
I shall not die alone!
