Thou Judge of quick and dead, Before whose bar severe
With holy joy or guilty dread We all shall soon appear; Do thou our souls prepare For that tremendous day,
And fill us now with watchful care And teach our hearts to pray. O may we thus insure A lot among the blest,
And watch a moment to secure An everlasting rest.
