Version #1
--------------------------
My time is swiftly rolling on
When I must faint and die;
My body to the dust return
And there fergotten lie
Let persecution rage around
And Antichrist appear;
My silent dust beneath the ground;
There's no disturbance there
To call poor sinners to repent
And seek their Savior dear
My brother preachers, boldly speak
And stand on Zion's wall
Confirm the drunk, confirm the weak
And after sinners call
My loving wife, my bosom friend
The object of my love
The time's been sweet l've spent with you
My sweet and harmless dove
My little children near my heart
My warm affections know
From each the path will I attend
O from them can I go?!
