When Downward To The Darksome Tomb

Author: Ray Palmer Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 43 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 When downward to the darksome tomb I thoughtful turn my eyes, Frail nature trembles at the gloom, And anxious fears arise. 2 Why shrinks my soul? In death’s embrace Once Jesus captive slept; And angels, hovering o’er the place, His lowly pillow kept. 3 Thus shall they guard my sleeping dust, And, as the Savior rose, The grave again shall yield her trust, And end my deep repose. 4 My Lord, before to glory gone, Shall bid me come away; And calm and bright shall break the dawn Of Heaven’s eternal day. Then let my faith each fear dispel, And gild with light the grave; To Him my loftiest praises swell, Who died from death to save. Used With Tune: SHARON
