     42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath, 43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus. 44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead. 45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph. 46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre. 47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.(KJV)

1. Lord Jesus Christ, 
My Savior blest, 
My Hope and my Salvation! 
I trust in Thee; 
Deliver me 
From misery; 
Thy Word’s my consolation. 

2. As Thou dost will, 
Lead Thou me still 
That I may truly serve Thee, 
My God, I pray, 
Teach me Thy way, 
To my last day 
In Thy true faith preserve me. 

3. Most heartily 
I trust in Thee; 
Thy mercy fails me never. 
Dear Lord, abide; 
My Helper tried, 
Thou Crucified, 
From evil keep me ever. 

4. Now henceforth must 
I put my trust 
In Thee, O dearest Savior. 
Thy comfort choice, 
Thy word and voice, 
My heart rejoice 
Despite my ill behavior. 

5. When sorrows rise, 
My refuge lies 
In Thy compassion tender. 
Within Thine arm 
Can naught alarm; 
Keep me from harm, 
Be Thou my strong Defender. 

6. I have Thy Word, 
Christ Jesus, Lord; 
Thou never wilt forsake me. 
This will I plead 
In time of need. 
Oh, help me speed 
When troubles overtake me! 

7. Grant, Lord, I pray, 
Thy grace each day 
That I, Thy Law revering, 
May live with Thee 
And happy be 
Eternally, 
Before Thy throne appearing.
