Analyze: Though in the Midst of Life We Be

by Marriott, John (1780-1825), tr. none

Song Lyrics

1. Though in midst of life we be, Snares of death sur- round us; Where shall we for suc- cor flee, Lest our foes con- found us? To Thee a- lone, our Sa- vior. We mourn our grie- vous sin which hath Stirr'd the fire of Thy fierce wrath. Ho- ly and gra- cious God! Ho- ly and might- y God! Ho- ly and all\- mer- ci- ful Sa- vior! Thou e- ter- nal God! Save us, Lord, from sink- ing In the deep and bit- ter flood. Ky- ri- e e- lei- son.

2. Whilst in midst of death we be, Hell's grim jaws o'er- take us; Who from such dis- tress will free. Who se- cure will make us? Thou on- ly, Lord, canst do it! It moves Thy ten- der heart to see Our great sin and mis- er- y. Sa- vior! Thou e- ter- nal God! Let not hell dis- may us With its deep and burn- ing flood. Ky- ri- e e- lei- son.

3. In- to hell's fierce a- go- ny Sin doth head- long drive us: Where shall we for suc- cor flee, Who, O, who will hide us? Thou on- ly, bless- ed Sa- viour. Thy pre- cious blood was shed to win Peace and par- don for our sin. Sa- vior! Let us not, we pray, From the true faith's com- fort Fall in our last need a- way. Ky- ri- e e- lei- son.
