Pity A Helpless Sinner, Lord
Who would believe the gracious word,
But own my heart with shame and grief,
A sink of sin and unbelief.
Lord, in thy house I read there's room,
And, venturing, behold I come;
But can there, tell me, can there be,
Amongst thy children, room for me?
I eat the bread, and drink the wine;
But oh! My would wants more than sign!
I faint unless I feed on thee,
And drink the blood as shed for me.
For sinners, Lord, thou camest to bleed,
And I'm a sinner vile indeed;
Lord, I believe thy grace is free;
O magnify that grace in me.
