Though I stand at the edge of darkest death Yet nor will my courage ever leave me My Lord shall now enfold me in his arms Evil shall forever be vanquished. The angels of the Lord shall sing my name And I shall boldly go to where he leads For I know his Heaven shall be my home And all his heavenly wealth shall be mine. His doves of peace will always sing my grace And scented oils will rest my weary eyes No more the wicked Hades of bitter war And I shall rest forever in his arms. AMEN!
