[I know, most gracious Saviour]

I know, most gracious Saviour,
My night approaches fast;
O may I by Thy favour,
Be found in peace at last:

439

My time of visitation,
My latest hour improve,
And work out my salvation,
And die, renew'd in love.
What can I do but offer
My dregs of life to Thee?
What can I do but suffer
Whate'er Thou lay'st on me?
In manifold temptations,
I at Thy feet attend:
My duty now is patience,
Till pain, with life shall end.
