1 Though in midst of life we be, Snares of death Surround us ; Where shall we for succor flee, Lest our foes confound us ?
To thee alone, our Saviour.
We mourn our grievous sin vs'hich hatli Stirr'd the iire of thy fierce wrath.
Holy and gracious God Holy and all-merciful Saviour Save US, Lord, from sinking In the deep and bitter flood.
2 Whilst in midst of death we be, Hell's grim jaws o'ertake us ; Who from such distress will free.
Who secure will make us ?
Thou only, Lord, canst do it It raoves thy tender heart to see Our great sin and misery.
Holy and gracious God Holy and all merciful Saviour Let not hell dismay us With its deep and burning flood.
3 Into hell's fierce agony Sin doth headlong drive us Where shall we for succor flee, Who, O, who will hide us ?
Thou only, blessed Saviour.
Thy precious blood was shed to win Peace and pardon for our sin.
Holy and gracious God Holy and all-merciful Saviour From the true faith's comfort Fall in our last need away.
