    O! DEATH WHEREFORE THEN IS THY STING

    VERSE 1
    O! Death wherefore then is thy sting?
    O! Grave where then is thy vict’ry?
    The sting of death is short coming
    Christ has conquered all.

    VERSE 2
    Friendship, in death is set apart
    Yet we know that in the last days
    We shall meet never more to part;
    Christ has vict’ry won.

    VERSE 3
    Farewell thou child of the Father
    Thou art returning to Thy God,
    For whoever sleeps in the Lord,
    Has eternal rest.

    VERSE 4
    When the trumpet shall be sounded,
    The dead shall first be awakened;
    And rise with body glorified
    Christ has conquered death.

    VERSE 5
    Spirit itself beareth witness;
    They are blest, which sleep in the Lord,
    For their good works done here on earth,
    Follow after them.

    Amen
