    (continued from previous page)
    I strive full earnest tp gain the Cup
    But many a time I fall
    Sweet Saint, but stop and raise me up
    Till the Lord my name will call

    At last lying prostrate on my bed
    Come thou great martyr hold my hand
    When the Death dew falls upon my head
    Lead, Oh lead me to the Better Land
