Forgive them, O my Father
What sweet of life endureth
Author: St John of Damascus, c. 750; Athelstan Riley, 1858-1945 Meter: 7.6.7.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 What sweet of life endureth
Unmixed with bitter pain?
’Midst earthly change and chances
What glory doth remain?
2 All is a feeble shadow,
A dream that will not stay;
Death cometh in a moment,
And taketh all away.
3 O Christ, a light transcendent
Shines in thy countenance,
And none can tell the sweetness,
The beauty of thy glance.
4 In this may thy poor servants
His joy eternal find;
Thou calledst them, O rest them,
Thou lover of mankind! Topics: Sacraments and Other Rites Funerals and the Departed Used With Tune: ST MARY MAGDALENE Text Sources: Greek
