::::''1.''
:Who knows how near my end may be?
:Time speeds away, and death comes on;
:How swiftly, ah! how suddenly,
:May death be here, and life be gone!
:My God, for Jesus’ sake I pray
:Thy peace may bless my dying day.
 
::::''2.''
:The world that smiled when morn was come
:May change for me ere close of eve;
:So long as earth is still my home
:In peril of my death I live;
:My God, for Jesus’ sake I pray
:Thy peace may bless my dying day.
 
::::''3.''
:Teach me to ponder oft my end,
:And ere the hour of death appears,
:To cast my soul on Christ her Friend,
:Nor spare repentant cries and tears;
:My God, for Jesus’ sake I pray
:Thy peace may bless my dying day.
 
::::''4.''
:And let me now so order all,
:That ever ready I may be,
:To say with joy, whate’er befall,
:Lord, do Thou as Thou wilt with me:
:My God, for Jesus’ sake I pray
:Thy peace may bless my dying day.
 
::::''5.''
:O Father, cover all my sins
:With Jesus’ merits, who alone
:The pardon that I covet wins,
:And makes His long sought rest our own;
:My God, for Jesus’ sake I pray
:Thy peace may bless my dying day.
 
::::''6.''
:Then death may come or tarry yet,
:I know in Christ I perish not;
:He never will His own forget,
:He gives me robes without a spot:
:My God, for Jesus’ sake I pray
:Thy peace may bless my dying day.
 
::::''7.''
:And thus I live in God at peace,
:And die without a thought or fear,
:Content to take what God decrees,
:For through His Son my faith is clear;
:His grace shall be in death my stay,
:And peace shall bless my dying day.
