HYMN Lyrics Text: Help Lord The Souls

1. Help, Lord the souls

that thou hast made

the souls to thee so dear,

In prison for the debt unpaid

of sins committed here




2. These holy souls

they suffer on,

resigned in heart and will

until thy high behest is done

And justice has its fill




3. For daily falls for pardoned crimed

they joy to undergo

The shadow of the cross sublime

the remnant of thy woe




4. O by their patience of delay

their hope amid their pain

their sacred zeal to burn away

disfigurement and stain




5. O by their fire of love

But less in keenness than the flame

O by their very helplessness

O by thy own great Name




6. Good Jesus, help! Sweet Jesus aid!

the souls to thee most dear

in prison for the debts unpaid

of sins committed here
