The Hour of Death, and Entrance on Immortality.

1O God unseen--but not unknown!

Thine eye is ever fixed on me;

I dwell beneath thy secret throne,

Encompassed by thy deity.

2The moment comes when strength must fail,

When, health and hope and comfort flown,

I must go down into the vale

And shade of death, with thee alone:

3Alone with thee;--in that dread strife
