The Death of His Saints
When godly ones cease
And the faithful vanish...
When righteous ones die
And the merciful perish,
No one brings this thought to mind,
And no one ponders this in their heart:
"They are taken away from the evil to come."
Because each of them walked upright,
This moment is precious in God's sight.
They shall enter into peace
Into the joy of their Lord
As we lay them in their beds.
