Bowing before the sacred throne,
The contrite sinner feels undone;
Covered with shame, bedewed with tears,
Mercy he craves, but judgment fears.
The Lord who pities the distressed,
Hears his complaints and gives him rest;
His soul forgets its wonted grief,
When Jesus’ love affords relief.
Doubts which had oft perplexed before,
Are banished now to reign no more;
His trembling lips with joy record,
The grace and goodness of the Lord.
