Absent from flesh, O blissful thought What joy that moment brings Freed from the blame my sin has brought, From pain and death and its sting. Absent from flesh, O glorious day! In one triumphant stroke My reckoning paid, my charges dropped, And the bonds 'round my hands are broke. I go where God and glory shine, To one eternal day And this failing body I now resign, For the Angels point my way For the Angels point my way Absent from flesh! Then rise, my soul, Where feet nor wings could climb, Beyond the sky, where planets roll, And beyond all keep of time. I go where God and glory shine, To one eternal day And this failing body I now resign, For the Angels point my way For the Angels point my way
