"With Christ," which is far better!
It is a solemn thing to die,
To face the king Immortal,
And each forgiven sinner should
Tread softly o'er the portal.
But when we have confessed our sins
To him who can discern them,
And God has given pardon, peace,
Tho' we could ne'er deserve them,
Then, dying is no dangerous thing;
