"He's Asleep" Jesus Said

"He is asleep." - Luke 8:52

FUTURE LIFE• 7 VERSES

VERSE 1

"He's asleep" Jesus said
Of Lazarus His friend
He who was dead, and was buried
And laid in His own grave.

He who died for four days
Jesus said, he's asleep
He's the resurrection and life
For all those that trust Him.

Jesus' friends never die
But their bodies conceal
Away from worm, below the ground
Now to fly in the sky.

Sleep on thou beloved
Jesus is by your side
Be not afraid, for He promised
Resurrection to us.

His voice will soon be heard,
From thy now resting place
His sweet voice will now call on thee
Into resurrection.

Let's not be sorrowful
Like one that has no hope
We bid thee farewell dear belov'd
Sleep on and take thy rest.

And we also shall sleep
At the time of our call
O that we at dawn meet again
At the feet of our Lord.
