Soul To Heaven

÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷

At the end of the path I have trod,
just as Jesus arose from the loam,

I'll ascend to the kingdom of God,
may the Seraphim welcome me home


Take me, Lord, on the day that I die,
wash me clean of the sins of my birth

Let my soul be redeemed to the sky
and my dust be returned to the earth


÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷
