“Jesus, Lover of my soul, Let me to thy bosom fly,
While the nearer waters roll, While the tempest still is high;
Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, Till the storm of life be past;
Safe into the haven guide, O receive my soul at last.”

Our freshest dreams and meditations,
In swift succession should decay,
Like Autumn leaves that rot away.”
