Hymn 761
'Servant of God, well done
- mp Servant of God, well done
From all your labours, rest;
mf Thou has fought and Thou has triumphed
Enter Thy Master's joy,"
The call came in the night.
He rais'd himself to hear,
p The arrow of death enter'd in,
pp He fell, but did not fear.
- f The midnight cry went forth,
"Arise to meet Thy God"
He woke, and saw his commander.
Through prayer and in faith
cr His soul rose up at once,
Left this body of clay:
When morn broke, this body of clay
p Was found lying down dead.
- f The pangs of death is past.
Cares and distress are o'er
The days of fighting are all gone.
His heart has found real peace;
f Soldier of Christ, "well done"
Keep singing songs of joy:
ff Take thy rest in Thy Saviour's breast,
cr And rest eternally.
