<p>O Strength and Stay upholding all creation,<br>
|
|
Who ever dost Thyself unmoved abide;<br>
|
|
Yet day by day the light in due gradation<br>
|
|
From hour to hour through all its changes guide.</p>
|
|
<p>Grant to life’s day a calm unclouded ending,<br>
|
|
An eve untouched by shadows of decay,<br>
|
|
The brightness of a holy deathbed blending<br>
|
|
With dawning glories of the eternal day.</p>
|
|
<p>Hear us, O Father, gracious and forgiving,<br>
|
|
Through Jesus Christ Thy co-eternal Word,<br>
|
|
Who, with the Holy Ghost, by all things living<br>
|
|
Now and to endless ages art adored.</p>
