Daniel: Dismiss'd I calmly go my way

Dismiss'd I calmly go my way
hich leads me to the tomb.
And rest in hope of that great day
When my Desire shall come:
Happy, with those that first arise,
Might I my lot obtain.
When Christ descending from the skies
Begins His glorious reign.

An end of all these earthly things
Shall I not wake to see?
And wilt not Thou, O King of kings,
Appoint a throne for me?
I lay me down at Thy command,
But soon to life restored,
I trust on the new earth to stand
Before my heavenly Lord.
