O Jesus pity those poor souls
Who burn in cleansing fire
To soon behold you face to face
Is now their one desire
They cannot help themselves today
And so they seek our aid
That their admittance to your heart
Be not Too long delayed2.
Hear then our prayers for them
Those souls
Are to you very dear
Our relatives perhaps or friends
Who once were with us here
Now suffering in devouring flames
They long for sweet release
Oh Jesus grant those Holy Souls
Eternal rest and peace.- Collector
