In Memory of John Ade

’Ti» Finished ’Tie finished, ’tie finished, away soul, away. Thou art now no longer In bondage tn day. Thy slavery la ended, thy fetters noy lay In the earth’a darkened bosom, speed onward, away, 9 Away froth the cares and the StrifexOf this earth, Away to* the land where thy spirit had birth, Away to commune with the Savior today, , On thy God-given mission, speed onward, away. ’Tie finished, ’tia finished, away soul, away, Thou art now no longer surrounded by clay, Thy dreams in the past will tomorrow prove true, Christ’s love that you longed tor be given to you; Life’s journey is ended, away soul, away, To bask in life's sunshine, speed upward today. Press onward, press onward thy trials are done, Thy journey is ended, thy race has been run, The hope of the past is today proven true, God’s glory at last is revealed unto you, Speed onward, speed onward, away soul, away, On thy beautiful mission speed onward today.
