Eureka 378b

Tune: John Palmer Rees, 1859
Alto: Mrs. Anna L. (Cooper) Blackshear, 1902
Lyrics: Social and Campmeeting Songs, 1828
Meter: Long Meter (8,8,8,8)
Soon will this mortal life be o’er,
This body moulder into dust;
Naked my soul will stand before
A God that’s holy, pure and just.

Its standing doom of bliss or woe
Will from the Great I Am receive;
Up to the realms of glory go,
Or in hell’s torments ever live.
