Depth of mercy! can there be
Mercy still reserved for me?
Can my God his wrath forbear?
Me, the chief of sinners, spare?
God is love; I know, I feel;
Jesus weeps and loves me still;
Jesus weeps and loves me still.
I have long withstood his grace,
Long provoked him to his face;
Would not hearken to his calls;
Grieved him by a thousand falls.
God is love; I know, I feel;
Jesus weeps and loves me still;
Jesus weeps and loves me still.
There for me the Savior stands;
Shows his wounds and spreads his hands;
God is love; I know, I feel;
Jesus weeps, and loves me still.
God is love; I know, I feel;
Jesus weeps and loves me still;
Jesus weeps and loves me still.
Now incline me to repent;
Let me now my fall lament;
Now my foul revolt deplore;
Weep, believe, and sin no more.
God is love; I know, I feel;
Jesus weeps and loves me still;
Jesus weeps and loves me still.
