Let us  love  and  help  each  other! Our Father  is  in  heaven, And Jesus  is  our  Brother, And Mary  is  our  Mother, And the  blessed  Saints  above And the  friends  on  earth  we  love, Nay, every  human  creature  is  the  child Of our  Father  dear  in  heaven. Let us  love  and  be  loved,  forgive  and  be  forgiven.

This hour  for  some  poor  souls  is  life's  last  hour. Saved, saved  —  or  lost! — when  this  short  hour's  gone  by.

Have pity  on  me,  you  at  least,  my  friends! No, not  with  death  true  love,  true  pity  ends. Your prayers  can  still  assist  me  on  my  way. Take pity  on  me,  O  dear  friends,  and  pray.

Our hearts  were  made  for  Thee,  O  Lord! And restless  must  they  be Until  —  O  Lord,  this  grace  accord! —  Until  they  rest  in  Thee.

Another day  is  ended; How many  more  to  live? Alas, too  many  wasted! My God,  forgive,  forgive
