God the Father
God the Son
God the Spirit
Three in One
Hear us from Thy heavenly throne
Spare us
Holy Trinity.
Jesu
life of those who die
Advocate with God on high
Hope of immortality
Hear us
holy Jesu.
Thou whose death to mortals gave
Power to triumph o’er the grave
Living now from death to save
Hear us
holy Jesu.
Thou before whose great white throne
All our doings must be shown
Pleading now for us Thine own
Hear us
holy Jesu.
Thou whose death was borne that we
From the power of Satan free
Might not die eternally
Hear us
holy Jesu.
Thou who dost a place prepare
That in heavenly mansions fair
Sinners may Thy glory share
Hear us
holy Jesu.
We are dying day by day
Soon from earth we pass away;
Lord of Life
to Thee we pray:
Hear us
holy Jesu.
Ere we hear the angel’s call
And the shadows round us fall
Be our Savior
be our all;
Hear us
holy Jesu.
Wean our hearts from things below
Make us all Thy love to know
Guard from our ghostly foe:
Hear us
holy Jesu.
Shelter us with angel’s wing
To our souls Thy pardon bring;
So shall death have lost its sting:
Hear us
holy Jesu.
In the gloom Thy light provide;
Safely through the valley guide;
Thee we trust
for Thou hast died;
Hear us
holy Jesu.
When Thy summons we obey
On the dreadful Judgment Day
Let not fear our souls dismay:
Hear us
holy Jesu.
While the lost in terror fly
May we see with joyful eye
Our redemption drawing nigh:
Hear us
holy Jesu.
May we see Thee on Thy throne
As the Savior we have known
And have followed as our own:
Hear us
holy Jesu.
May we then
among the blest
Who Thy name on earth confessed
Hear Thee calling us to rest
Hear us
holy Jesu.
From the awful place of doom
Where in rayless outer gloom
Dead souls lie as in a tomb
Save us
holy Jesu.
From the black
the dull despair
Ruined men and angels share
From the dread companions there
Save us
holy Jesu.
From the unknown agonies
Of the soul that helpless lies
From the worm that never dies
Save us
holy Jesu.
From the lusts that none can tame
From the fierce mysterious flame
From the everlasting shame
Save us
holy Jesu.
Where Thy saints in glory reign
Free from sorrow
free from pain
Pure from every guilty stain
Bring us
holy Jesu.
Where the captives find release
Where all foes from troubling cease
Where the weary rest in peace
Bring us
holy Jesu.
Where the pleasures never cloy
Where in angels’ holy joy
Thy redeemed their powers employ
Bring us
holy Jesu.
Where in wondrous light are shown
All Thy dealings with Thine own
Who shall know as they are known
Bring us
holy Jesu.
Where
with loved ones gone before
We may love Thee and adore
In Thy presence evermore
Bring us
holy Jesu.
