Now the battle day is past;

Now upon the farther shore

Lauds the voyager at last.

Refrain

Father, in thy gracious keeping

Leave we now thy servant sleeping.

(Last verse: )Amen.
There the tears of earth are dried;

There its hidden things are clear;

There the work of life is tried

By a juster Judge than here.

Refrain
There the sinful souls, that turn

To the cross their dying eyes,

All the love of Christ shall learn

At his feet in Paradise.

Refrain
'Earth to earth, and dust to dust,'

Calmly now the words we say;

Left behind, we wait in trust

For the resurrection day.

Refrain
