God Of Mercy! God Of Love!
Hear Our Sad, Repentant Songs;
Listen To Thy Suppliant Ones,
Thou, To Whom All Grace Belongs!
Deep Regret For Follies Past,
Talents Wasted, Time Misspent;
Hearts Debased By Worldly Cares,
Thankless For The Blessings Lent;
Foolish Fears And Fond Desires,
Vain Regrets For Things As Vain;
Lips Too Seldom Taught To Praise,
Oft To Murmur And Complain;
These, And Every Secret Fault,
Filled With Grief And Shame We Own;
Humbled At Thy Feet We Bow,
Seeking Strength From Thee Alone.
God Of Mercy! God Of Love!
Hear Our Sad Repentant Songs;
O, Restore Thy Suppliant Ones,
Thou To Whom All Grace Belongs!
