Met at this most solemn time,
Watching out the dying year,
Waiting for the midnight chime ;
Jesus, mercy ; Saviour, hear !
Lo, we come confessing sin,
Sins of this, another year ;
Pardon all speak peace within ;
Jesus, mercy ; Saviour, hear !
Blessings, too, we would recall,
Mercies crowning all the year,
And would give Thee thanks for all ;
Jesus, mercy ; Saviour, hear !
If the thoughts of loved ones gone,
Gather round the closing year,
Thou can'st cheer the mourner on ;
Jesus, mercy ; Saviour, hear !
