Fear Not Death
“Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints.” Psalm 116:15 of the King James Bible
Fear not death, oh my soul
Be ready to meet God
Blest with His love and grace
Assured by trusting faith
Steadfast upon hope’s brace.
Fear not death, oh my soul
As Christ you’ll soon behold
Toward worshipful flame
Praise-filled adoration
Exalting His grand name.
Fear not death, oh my soul
Ransomed by the Savior
Freed from damnation-chain
With divine sacrifice
Granting eternal gain.
Fear not death, oh my soul
Since the Lord greets you home
Welcoming with delight
Midst commendation bliss
Good works done through His light.
