Who granteth all and giveth proof
That life prepares us but for death;
And death. in turn. for nobler life,
A life devoid of toll and strife.

And that Thou lowest us, o, God.

Watch DER us, that we may not stray;
Lead us at last, to Thy great hall,
Where rsigneth peace aud endless day.

To us, Thy people, in the past;
For showing US the way to Heaven,
Where all may enter at the last
