From lethargy to fever of the heart | B |
From faithful life to dream dower'd days apart | B |
From trust to doubt from doubt to brink of ban | A |

Till now Alas the soul how soon must she | C |
Accept her primal immortality | C |
The flesh resume its dust whence it began | A |

O Lord of work and peace O Lord of life | D |
O Lord the awful Lord of will though late | E |
Even yet renew this soul with duteous breath | F |
That when the peace is garner'd in from strife | D |
The work retriev'd the will regenerate | E |
This soul may see thy face O Lord of death | F |
