| Freed from a burden sore and grievous band | B |
| Dear Lord and from this wearying world untied | C |
| Like a frail bark I turn me to Thy side | C |
| As from a fierce storm to a tranquil land | B |
| Thy thorns Thy nails and either bleeding hand | B |
| With Thy mild gentle piteous face provide | C |
| Promise of help and mercies multiplied | C |
| And hope that yet my soul secure may stand | B |
| Let not Thy holy eyes be just to see | D |
| My evil past Thy chastened ears to hear | E |
| And stretch the arm of judgment to my crime | F |
| Let Thy blood only lave and succour me | D |
| Yielding more perfect pardon better cheer | G |
| As older still I grow with lengthening time | F |
