Thou knowest, Lord, the secrets of our hearts;
shut not, shut not thy merciful ears unto our prayer;
but spare us, Lord, spare us, Lord most holy,
O God, O God most mighty,
O holy and most merciful Saviour,
thou most worthy Judge eternal,
suffer us not, suffer us not at our last hour,
for any pains of death, for any pains of death,
to fall, to fall from thee. Amen.
