'In sole reliance on Thy saving grace,
The Cross of Sacrifice which cleanseth sin,
Thy mercy and love as suppliants we embrace—
Here, at Thine altar, seek we peace within—
Lord, now in us Thy silent work begin!
O grant us true repentance of the past,
And Faith that shall not doubt Thee at the last!
