Preparation for Death, 64

Mindful of Thy servant, Lord,
When ready to depart,
Peace according to Thy word
Inspire into my heart:
To mine inmost soul apply
The virtue of Thy hallowing blood,
Born a child of wrath, that I
May die a child of God.
Saviour, on Thy faithful love
My ransom'd soul I cast,
Humbly confident to prove
Thy promised grace at last:
Better that my latter end
May than my beginning be,
Born in sin, my God and Friend,
I come to die in Thee.
