"A Christian Death"
Rejoice with me, my friends, 1 say rejoice!
I see my Master's face, / hear His voice
It calls me from my misery and pain
To Heavens gate, how glorious is my gain.
I ran the race of life with all my might
I turned not to the left nor to the right
And now I have arrived, I am set free;
Rejoice with me, my friend, rejoice with me!
- Wava Campbell
