Lyrics copied from P3 and perl-formatted --QMacrocarpa 10:15, 12 June 2007 (PDT):
"THE dying robber raised his aching brow"
" To claim the dying Lord for company;"
"And heard, in answer to his trembling vow,"
"The promise of the King: Thou--even thou--"
" To-day shalt be in Paradise with me."
""
"We too the measure of our guilt confess,"
" Knowing thy mercy, Lord, our only plea;"
"That we, like him, through judgement and distress,"
"For all the weight of our unworthiness,"
" May win our way to Paradise with thee."
""
"But so bewildered is our failing heart,"
" So dim the lustre of thy royalty."
"We hardly know thee, Lord, for what thou art,"
"Till we begin to take the better part"
" And lose ourselves in Paradise with thee."
""
"Then lift our eyes, dear Lord, from this poor dross,"
" To see thee reigning in humility,"
"The King of love; that, wresting gain from loss,"
"We too may climb the ladder of the Cross,"
" To find our home in Paradise with thee."

Lily3 Notes
Copy the Lilypond source to your computer and compile it to create MIDIs and a PDF to check. Leave notes here, or edit the code in Lily2 and leave notes describing the changes. The L3 who declares the hymn "cleared" should upload the correctly-named files to the file repository. This ensures that what is checked and cleared is exactly what is uploaded.
Notes by L2 Jkenny 09:19, 17 July 2007 (PDT)
- Since this is an alternative version of previous piece, with same melody, I have copied over the tune name and meter/tempo markings.

- 2nd system, 3rd bar, alto note should be a instead of ais.
- Everything else looks good.
Jkenny 20:38, 20 July 2007 (PDT)
- Fixed alto note.
