When our heads are bowed with woe,
when our bitter tears o'erflow,
when we mourn the lost, the dear,
Gracious Saviour, hear!
Thou our feeble flesh hast worn,
thou our mortal griefs hast borne,
thou hast shed the human tear,
Gracious Saviour, hear!
When the heart is sad within
with the thought of all its sin,
when the spirit shrinks with fear,
Gracious Saviour, hear!
Thou the shame, the grief, hast known,
though the sins were not thine own;
thou hast deigned their load to bear;
Gracious Saviour, hear!
When our eyes grow dim in death;
When we heave the parting breath;
when our solemn doom is near,
Gracious Saviour, hear!
Thou hast bowed the dying head,
thou the blood of life hast shed,
thou hast filled a mortal bier;
Gracious Saviour, hear!
