HYMN LVI.
[From sudden unexpected death]
From sudden unexpected death,
Jesus, Thy servant save,
Nor let me gasp my latest breath
Unconscious of the grave;
Jesus, Thy servant save,
Nor let me gasp my latest breath
Unconscious of the grave;
Unconscious of the yawning deep
And death eternal nigh;
Ah, do not suffer me to sleep
Till in my sins I die.
And death eternal nigh;
Ah, do not suffer me to sleep
Till in my sins I die.
Warn'd of the sure-approaching day,
I now Thy grace desire,
In mercy take my sins away,
And then my soul require.
I now Thy grace desire,
In mercy take my sins away,
And then my soul require.
Thy favour and Thine image, Lord,
O may I first retrieve,
And meet for my immense reward
To Thy great glory live.
O may I first retrieve,
And meet for my immense reward
To Thy great glory live.
Wise to foresee my latter end,
With humble, loving fear,
I would continually attend
The welcome messenger,
With humble, loving fear,
I would continually attend
The welcome messenger,
410
And summon'd to the mountain-top,
Without a lingering sigh
Render my ransom'd spirit up,
And to Thy glory die.
Without a lingering sigh
Render my ransom'd spirit up,
And to Thy glory die.
