Asleep in Jesus! Blessed sleep, 
From which none ever wakes to weep; 
calm and undisturbed repose, 
Unbroken by the last of foes.

Asleep in Jesus! Peaceful rest, 
Whose waking is supremely blessed; 
No fear, no woe, shall dim that hour 
That manifests the Savior's power.

LaLaLa...

Asleep in Jesus! Oh, how sweet, 
To be for such a slumber meet, 
With holy confidence to sing 
That death has lost his venomed sting!

LaLaLa... 
Amen...

Asleep in Jesus! Oh, for me 
May such a blessed refuge be! 
Securely shall my ashes lie 
And wait the summons from on high.

Asleep in Jesus! Far from thee 
Thy kindred and their graves may be; 
But there is still a blessed sleep, 
From which none ever wakes to weep.

LaLaLa... 
Amen...
