Lyrics
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
The latest sun is sinking fast, my race is almost run
My strongest trials now are past, my triumph is begun
O come, angel band, come and around me stand
Bear me away on your snow-white wings to my immortal home
Bear me away on your snow-white wings to my mortal home
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I've almost gained my heavenly home, my spirit loudly sings
Behold, they come, I hear the noise of wings
O come, angel band, come and around me stand
O bear me away on your snow-white wings to my immortal home
Bear me away on your snow-white wings to my mortal home
Ooh, ooh, ooh
