|
<p>Depth of mercy! Can there be<br>
|
|
Mercy still reserved for me?<br>
|
|
Can my God His wrath forbear,<br>
|
|
Me, the chief of sinners, spare?</p>
|
|
<p>I have long withstood His grace,<br>
|
|
Long provoked Him to His face,<br>
|
|
Would not hearken to His calls,<br>
|
|
Grieved Him by a thousand falls.</p>
|
|
<p>I have spilt His precious blood,<br>
|
|
Trampled on the Son of God,<br>
|
|
Filled with pangs unspeakable,<br>
|
|
I, who yet am not in hell!</p>
|
|
<p>I my Master have denied,<br>
|
|
I afresh have crucified,<br>
|
|
And profaned His hallowed Name,<br>
|
|
Put Him to an open shame.</p>
|
|
<p>Whence to me this waste of love?<br>
|
|
Ask my Advocate above!<br>
|
|
See the cause in Jesus; face,<br>
|
|
Now before the throne of grace.</p>
|
|
<p>Jesus, answer from above,<br>
|
|
Is not all Thy nature love?<br>
|
|
Wilt Thou not the wrong forget,<br>
|
|
Permit me to kiss Thy feet?</p>
|
|
<p>If I rightly read Thy heart,<br>
|
|
If Thou all compassion art,<br>
|
|
Bow Thine ear, in mercy bow,<br>
|
|
Pardon and accept me now.</p>
|
|
<p>Jesus speaks, and pleads His blood!<br>
|
|
He disarms the wrath of God;<br>
|
|
Now my Father’s mercies move,<br>
|
|
Justice lingers into love.</p>
|
|
<p>Kindled His relentings are,<br>
|
|
Me He now delights to spare,<br>
|
|
Cries, “How shall I give thee up?”<br>
|
|
Lets the lifted thunder drop.</p>
|
|
<p>Lo! I still walk on the ground:<br>
|
|
Lo! an Advocate is found:<br>
|
|
“Hasten not to cut Him down,<br>
|
|
Let this barren soul alone.”</p>
|
|
<p>There for me the Savior stands,<br>
|
|
Shows His wounds and spreads His hands.<br>
|
|
God is love! I know, I feel;<br>
|
|
Jesus weeps and loves me still.</p>
|
|
<p>Pity from Thine eye let fall,<br>
|
|
By a look my soul recall;<br>
|
|
Now the stone to flesh convert,<br>
|
|
Cast a look, and break my heart.</p>
|
|
<p>Now incline me to repent,<br>
|
|
Let me now my sins lament,<br>
|
|
Now my foul revolt deplore,<br>
|
|
Weep, believe, and sin no more.</p>
