Пёрселл Генри - In the midst of life - текст песни (слова)

In the midst of life we are in death,
 of whom may we seek for succour
 but of thee, O Lord,
 who for our sins art justly displeased?
 
 Yet, O Lord, O Lord most mighty,
 O holy and most merciful Saviour,
 deliver us not into the bitter pains
 of eternal death.
