Tune: St Peter

('How sweet the name of Jesus sounds')

Based on a Formal Prayer = Collect

*********

Father of all, by whose mercy

And grace yours we now be

Kept by you here we do remain

In your light once again

 

That light 'tis everlasting bright

Consoling to our sight

And too e'erlasting peace we know

You have ordained it so

 

We here remember with thanks true

Those we not see, but know

For they have gone ahead, glory

To share, it they e'er see

 

We pray that in them your good will

You perfectly fulfil

And bring all to our final rest

With Christ, we ever blest
