We shall walk through the valley in peace.

We shall walk through the valley in peace.

For Jesus himself will be our leader.

We will meet our loved ones there.

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me!

I once was lost, but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see.

’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,

And grace my fears relieved;

How precious did that grace appear,

The hour I first believed.

The Lord has promised good to me.

His word my hope secures;

He will my shield and portion be

As long as life endures.

The eart shall soon dissolve like snow,

The sun forbear to shin;

But God who called me here below

Will be forever mine.

Dies irae, dies illa 

(The day of wrath, that day)

Solvet saeclum in favilla, 

(Will turn the world into ashes)

Dies irae, dies illa 

(The day of wrath, that day)

Teste David cum Sibylla. 

(David and the Sibyl witness)

Mors stupebit et natura, 

(Death and nature will be astonished)

Cum resurget creatura, 

(When the creature will rise again)

Judicanti responsura, 

(To answer the Judge)

Recordare, Jesu pie 

(Remember, O Jesus)

Ne me perdas, 

(do not destroy me)

Huic ergo parce, 

(Therefore spare this one)

Deus: Dona eis requiem. 

(God: Give them rest)

Salva me! 

(Save me!)

Salva me! 

(Save me!)

Child of wonder, child of sky.

Time to end your voyage, time to die.

Silent slumber calls you dark and deep,

Child of soft surrender, child of sleep.

Child of sorrow, child of rain.

There is no tomorrow, no more pain.

Turn your silvered sails toward the light,

Child of mourning, child of night.

Child of iridescence, Child of dream,

Stars and moons will guide you down the stream.

Stretched on ocean waves of endless foam,

Welcome home my child, welcome home.

Welcome home, welcome home.

Only in sleep I see their faces,

Loved ones I sang with when I was a child,

Ralph first comes back with his gaze full of wonder,

Ruthie with laughter strong and wild.

Only in sleep Time is forgotten:

Do they now walk with God, where they've gone?

Yet we sang last night as long ago,

And the church bell tolls at the breaking of dawn.

The years have not silenced their joyful voices,

I hear them calling through the night.

Do they still sing to me, I wonder,

And do they guide me with their light?

Sanctus, sanctus, sanctus, 

(Holy, holy, holy)

Dominus Deus Sabaoth. 

(Lord God of Sabaoth)

Pleni sunt coeli et terra gloria tua.

Ev'ry church bell tolling,

Ev'ry leaf and sod.

I offer Thee

Ev'ry wave that ever moved,

Ev'ry heart that ever loved Thee,

Thy Father's well beloved.

Dear Lord!

Ev'ry river dashing,

Ev'ry lightning flashing 

Like an angel's sword

Benedicimus Te!

I offer Thee

Ev'ry cloud that ever swept

O'er the skies and broke and wept

In rain, and with the flow'rlets slept.

My King!

Ev'ry communicant praying,

Ev'ry angel staying

Before Thy throne to sing.

Adoramus Te!

I offer Thee

Ev'ry flake of virgin snow,

Ev'ry spring of earth below,

Ev'ry human joy and woe.

My love!

O Lord!

And all Thy glorious Self victorius,

Throned in heav'n above!

Glorificamus Te!

Laudamus Te!

Benedicimus Te!

Adoramus Te!
