32 Lo! the pain of life is past,
 * All his warfare now is o'er;

Death and hell behind are cast
 * Grief and suff'ring are no more.

Yes! the Christian's course is run,
 * Ended is the glorious strife;

Fought the fight, the work is done,
 * Death is swallow'd up of life!

Borne by angels on their wings,
 * Far from earth the spirit flies,

Finds his God, and rests, and sings.
 * Triumphing in Paradise."
