[When God receives His servants up]
Elijah took his mantle, and smote the waters, &c.
—ii. 8.
When God receives His servants up,
As at the stream of death we stop,
On Jordan's brink a moment stay:
But Jesus, our immortal Guide,
Did by His death the waves divide,
And shows our souls an open way.
As at the stream of death we stop,
On Jordan's brink a moment stay:
But Jesus, our immortal Guide,
Did by His death the waves divide,
And shows our souls an open way.
Christ and the promised land in view,
His ransom'd pass securely through,
Howe'er the idle billows roar;
In our Elijah's mantle clad,
By His eternal Spirit stay'd,
We reach with songs the heavenly shore!
His ransom'd pass securely through,
Howe'er the idle billows roar;
In our Elijah's mantle clad,
By His eternal Spirit stay'd,
We reach with songs the heavenly shore!
