English text

Ah! Lord, when my last end is come,
bid angels bear my spirit home
To Abraham's bosom going;
My flesh, laid in the quiet tomb,
shall sleep until the day of doom,
Nor pain nor sorrow knowing.

Then, waking from that dark abode,
mine eyes shall see Thee face to face
In boundless joy, O Son of God,
My Savior and my Throne of Grace.
Lord Jesus Christ, give ear to me,
who bring unending praise to Thee.
