A (G, capo 2)
Traditional
Begin with G D G (1 5 1) turn-around
G C G
My latest sun is sinking fast,
D G
My race is nearly run,
C G
My longest trials now are passed,
D G
My triumph has begun
[Chorus]
D G
Oh come angel band
D G
Come and around me stand
C G
Bear me away on your snow white wings,
D G
To my immortal home.
1 line break
Oh bear my loving heart to him
Who bled and died for me,
Whose blood now cleanses from all sin
And gives me victory
1 line break
I’ve almost reached my heavenly home
My spirit loudly sings
The holy ones, behold they come
I hear the noise of wings.
Implied Amen (C, G)
