-{{Text|English|
-. There is a land of pleasure,
-Where peace and joy forever roll
-'Tis there I have my treasure,
-And there I long to rest my soul:
-Thick darkness dwelt around me,
-With scarcely once a cheering ray;
-But since my Savior's found me,
-A lamp has shone along my way.
-. My way's beset with danger,
-But 'tis the path that leads to God,
-And like a valiant soldier,
-I'll march along the heavenly road:
-Now I will gird my sword on,
-My breastplate, helmet, and my shield,
-And fight the host of Satan,
-Until I gain the heavenly field.
-. I'm on my way to Canaan,
-Still guided by my Savior's hand;
-Come along, dear sinner,
-And view Emmanuel's happy land:
-To all that stay behind me,
-I bid a long, a long farewell;
-O come, or you'll repeat it,
-When you shall reach the gates of hell.}}

-{{Text|Simple|
-. The vale of tears surrounds me,
-And Jordan's current rolls before;
-Why should I fear or tremble
-To hear the dismal waters roar?
-His hand will then support me
-And keep my soul from sinking there,
-From sinking down to darkness,
-Into the regions of despair.
-. This stream shall not affright me,
-Although 'tis deeper than the grave;
-If Jesus stands besides me,
-I'll smoothly ride o'er Jordan's wave,
-His word has calmed the ocean,
-His lamp has cheered the gloomy vale,
-O may this friend be with me
-When through the gates of death I sail,
-. Then come, thou king of terrors,
-And with thy dagger lay me low;
-I'll sooner reach those mansions
-Where everlasting pleasures flow.
-O Christians, I must leave you,
-No more to join your social band;
-No more to stand beside you,
-Till at the judgment bar we stand.}}
-{{mdl|3}}
-{{Text|Simple|
-. Soon the archangel's trumpet
-Shall shake the globe from pole to pole,
-And all the wheels of nature
-Shall in a moment cease to roll;
-Then we shall see our Jesus,
-With shining ranks of angels, come
-To execute his vengeance,
-And take his ransomed children home.}}
