A poem by Isaac Watts

Hymn 1:18 [Hear What The Voice From Heaven Proclaims]

________________________________________________
Title:     Hymn 1:18 [Hear What The Voice From Heaven Proclaims]
Author: Isaac Watts [More Titles by Watts]

Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, Rev. 14. 13.


Hear what the voice from heaven proclaims,
For all the pious dead,
Sweet is the savour of their names,
And soft their sleeping bed.

They die in Jesus, and are bless'd;
How kind their slumbers are!
From sufferings and from sins releas'd,
And freed from every snare.

Far from this world of toil and strife,
They're present with the Lord;
The labours of their mortal life
End in a large reward.





[The end]
Isaac Watts's Poem: Hymn 1:18 [Hear What The Voice From Heaven Proclaims]
