O For That Tenderness Of Heart
Which Bows Before The Lord,
Acknowledging How Just Thou Art,
And Trembles At Thy Word!
O For Those Humble, Contrite Tears
Which From Repentance Flow,
That Consciousness Of Guilt Which Fears
The Long-Suspended Blow!
Saviour, To Me In Pity Give
The Sensible Distress,
The Pledge Thou Wilt At Last Receive,
And Bid Me Die In Peace;
Wilt From The Dreadful Day Remove,
Before The Evil Come;
My Spirit Hide With Saints Above,
My Body In The Tomb.
