Author: Dr. P. Eber Hymnal: Hymns of the Evangelical Lutheran Church #31 (1886) Hymnal Title: Hymns of the Evangelical Lutheran Church Lyrics: 1 I fall asleep in Jesus' wounds,
there pardon for my sin abounds;
Yea, Jesus' blood and righteousness
my jewels are, my glorious dress,
wherein before my God I stand,
when I shall reach the heavenly land.
2 With peace and joy I now depart,
God's child I am with all my heart;
I thank thee, death, thou leadest me
To that true life where I would be.
So cleansed by Christ I fear not death.
Lord Jesus, strengthen Thou my faith! Topics: Death And Eternity Languages: English Tune Title: [I fall asleep in Jesus' wounds]
