[Pray God for grace, my lufe maist deir]

Pray God for grace, my lufe maist deir
Quhilk bocht vs with his precious blude
That we him lufe with hart inteir
In welth and want, be land and flude.
Ask and haue (sayis the Lord)
Als geue and geuin sall be to ȝow,
Quhat sweitar thing may we record,
Nor thy word Christ firmelie to trow.
Traist we alswa, baith air and lait,
With faithfull hope and esperance,
We sall ressaue efter our estait,
All Iust desyre, but discripance.
Thairfoir I think we suld reioyis,
And now greit myrthis mak from the splene,
Sen we ar chosin to repois,
In faith of Christ, and lyfe serene.

147

Christ our onlie succour in distres,
In till his grace, quha dois confyde,
His grace till him will ay incres,
Quhen warldlie traist will faill at neid.
FINIS.
