CCCXL.
Hear, gracious God ! a sinner's cry, For I have nowhere else to fly; My hope, my only hope's in Thee ; O God, be merciful to me !
To Thee I come, a sinner poor, And wait for mercy at Thy door ; Indeed, I've nowhere else to flee: O God, be merciful to me !
To Thee I come, a sinner weak, And scarce know how to pray or speak ; From fear and weakness set me free ; O God, be merciful to me !
To Thee I come, a sinner vile ; Upon me, Lord, vouchsafe to smile! Mercy alone I make my plea ; O God, be merciful to me !
To Thee I come, a sinner great, And well Thou knowest all my state ; Yet full forgiveness is with Thee ; O God, be merciful to me !
To Thee I come, a sinner lost, Nor have I ought wherein to trust; But where Thou art, Lord, I would be ; O God, be merciful to me !
To glory bring me, Lord, at last; And there, when all my fears are past, With all the saints I'll then agree, God has been merciful to me !
