The Hour Of My Departure’s Come,
I Hear The Voice That Calls Me Home;
At Last, O Lord, Let Trouble Cease,
Now Let Thy Servant Die In Peace!
Not In Mine Innocence I Trust;
I Bow Before Thee In The Dust,
And Through My Saviour’s Blood Alone
I Look For Mercy At Thy Throne.
I Leave The World Without A Tear,
Save For The Friends I Held So Dear;
To Heal Their Sorrows, Lord, Descend,
And To The Friendless Prove A Friend!
I Come, I Come At Thy Command,
I Yield My Spirit To Thy Hand!
Stretch Forth Thy Everlasting Arms,
And Shield Me In The Last Alarms.
The Hour Of My Departure’s Come,
I Hear The Voice That Calls Me Home:
Now, O My God, Let Trouble Cease,
Now Let Thy Servant Die In Peace!
