My latest sun is sinking fast, My race is nearly run, My strongest trials now are past, My triumph has begun. O come, angel band, come and around me stand, Bear me away on your snowy wings, To my immortal home. Bear me away on your snowy wings, To my immortal home. I've almost gained my heavenly home, My spirit softly sings. The holy ones, behold they come, I hear the sound of wings. O come, angel band, come and around me stand, Bear me away on your snowy wings, To my immortal home. Bear me away on your snowy wings, To my immortal home.
