Oh, death come get me now


I longed to be with you


I’m stung with all these worldly lies


Promises that not materialized.



Envelop me, oh death


Into your calming darkness


And I’ll wake up into the heavens


Where forever starts to rest.



Come rescue me, oh death


I’m not so scared of you


Because I understand it now


With you I have a life anew.



It’s only in death I learned,


I claim the Bible’s promise,


To see God and be in paradise


Experience the endless bliss.



So now death, let’s be friends


I longed for you to come


Take me away from this olden world


You are my key to see the Kingdom.
