[Verse 1]
My latest sun is sinking fast
My race is nearly run
My strongest trials now are past
My triumph has begun

[Chorus]
Oh, come, angel band
Come and around me stand
Oh, bear me away on your snow white wings
To my immortal home
Oh, bear me away on your snow white wings
To my immortal home

[Verse 2]
I've almost gained my heavenly home
My spirit loudly sings
Thy holy ones, behold, they come
I hear the sound of wings

[Chorus]
Oh, come, angel band
Come and around me stand
Oh, bear me away on your snow white wings
To my immortal home
Oh, bear me away on your snow white wings
To my immortal home
