Oh dear Judith, are you at peace?
Has God brought you home?
O blessed and young, forgive me please.
And Smile upon me from heaven's seat.
Oh dear Amy, are you at peace?
Have you finally seen His face?
For love you troubled, and for love you ceased.
No longer shall you weep.
Oh beloved Judith, I miss you so
Though your face I never did i see
Forgive your mother, for she was young
Forgive your father, for he was scared
Pray for us, as we weep
Oh beloved Amy, you be my crown
A sister of whom I shall boast
God's own martyr, forgive their sins
May you be purified by the Lord's own mercy
And pray for your wounded brother here.
Judith and Amy,
God's pure children.
Your faces I long to see.
Eternal life, through Christ may you reap,
May your pains live not long.
Remember me, your sinful friend
When again in heaven we meet.
