Originators like James Montgomery:

If God hath made this world so fair,
Where sin and death abound,
How beautiful beyond compare
Will paradise be found!

Gashed with honourable scars,
Low in Glory's lap they lie;
Though they fell, they fell like stars,
Streaming splendour through the sky.

When the good man yields his breath
(For the good man never dies).
