Here, the fairest flowers which bloom, 
Only blossom for the tomb; 
And golden-tinted cloudlets fly, 
Like vapors from the summer sky. 
Thus vanishes the morning dew. 
Thus fades from sight the rainbow’s hue, 
And all things lovely, fair, and gay. 
Appear a moment — then decay. 
Christian! in that world above, 
Where all is peace, and joy, and love, 
Immortal flowers, with fragrant breath, 
Forever bloom, and fear not death; 
Immortal joys fill up the days, 
Immortal songs of sweetest praise, 
From every heart and lip ascend, 
And in harmonious chorus blend.
