dryden - daniel read lyrics
my soul, come meditate the day
and think how near it stands
when thou must quit this house of clay
and fly to unknown lands
and you, mine eyes, look down and view
the hollow, gaping tomb;
this gloomy prison waits for you
when*e’er the summons come
o could we die with those that die
and place us in their stead
then would our spirits learn to fly
and converse with the dead:
then should we see the saints above
in their own glorious forms
and wonder why our souls should love
to dwell with mortal worms
how we should scorn these clothes of flesh
these fetters, and this load!
and long for evening to undress
that we may rest with god
we should almost forsake our clay
before the summons come
and pray and wish our souls away
to their eternal home
