NICOLAS
Death, I hear thy summons and I come
in haste, for my short life is done
And o! my soul is faint with love
for Him who waits for me above.
Lord, I come to life, to final birth
I leave the misery of earth
for light, by Thy eternal grace
where I shall greet Thee face to face.
Christ, receive my soul with tenderness
for in my last of life I bless
Thy name who lived and died for me
and dying, dying yield my soul to Thee.

CHORUS
Lord, now lettest Thou Thy servant
depart in peace, according to Thy word
For mine eyes have seen Thy salvation
which Thou hast prepared
before the face of all people
to be a light to lighten the gentiles
and to be the glory of Thy people Israel.
Glory be to the Father
and to the Son and to the Holy Ghost
As it was in the beginning
is now and ever shall be world without end.
Amen!

CONGREGATION & CHORUS
God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform
He plants His footsteps in the sea
and rides upon the storm.
Deep in unfathomable mines
of never failing skill
He treasures up his bright designs
and works His sovereign will.
Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take
the clouds ye so much dread
are big with mercy and shall break
in blessings on your head.
Amen!
