Awake at last, the nightmare’s o’er;
My true self I’ve become–
No longer in the Devil’s pow’r,
Earth’s now my heaven’s home.
For earth I see is taken in—
Is heaven’s ante-room;
At last we’re free from pow’r of sin;
Light pierces earthly gloom.
His dawn has broken through at last,
And life in me prevails.
I now with joy can sing and laugh,
And Rachel does not wail.
At last I can now love myself,
For I know God loves me;
He has restored my Eden health;
From Devil I’m set free.
