When Thou shalt come with trumpet sound,
With countless angels hovering round,
O Savior! grant me, in the air,
With all Thy saints, to meet Thee there!
Weep, O my soul! ere that great day
When God shall shine in stern array;
O weep Thy sin, that thou may’st be
In that severest judgment free!
O Christ, forgive, remit, protect,
And set Thy servant with th’elect,
That I may hear the voice that calls
The righteous to Thy heav’nly halls!
Words: Theodore of the Studium · 1862
