| 1. Hear what the voice
from heav'n proclaims,
For all the pious dead;
Sweet is the savor of their names,
And soft their sleeping bed.
2. They die in Jesus, and are blest;
How kind their slumbers are!
From suff'rings and from sins released,
And freed from every snare.
3. Far from this world of toil and strife,
They're present with the Lord;
The labors of their mortal life
End in a large reward.
