	1. Jesus, all Thy labor vast,
	All Thy woe and conflict past,
	Yielding up Thy soul at last:
	Hear us, holy Jesus.
	
	2. When the death shades round us lower,
	Guard us from the Tempter's power,
	Keep us in that trial hour:
	Hear us, holy Jesus.
	
	3. May Thy life and death supply
	Grace to live and grace to die,
	Grace to reach the home on high:
	Hear us, holy Jesus.
