Idumaea Lyrics
And am I born to die?
And lay this body down?
And as my trembling spirits fly
Into a world unknown
A land of deeper shade
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary region of the dead
Where all things are forgot
Soon as from earth I go
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my fortune be
Waked by the trumpet's sound
I from my grave shall rise
And see the Judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming skies
And lay this body down?
And as my trembling spirits fly
Into a world unknown
Unpierced by human thought
The dreary region of the dead
Where all things are forgot
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my fortune be
I from my grave shall rise
And see the Judge with glory crowned
And see the flaming skies
