Burdened with guilt, and pale with fear,
Lo, the repentant sinner stands;
To God directs his broken prayer,
And upward lifts his suppliant hands.
A conscious blush spreads o’er his face,
And anguish fills his labouring soul;
A solemn grief his looks express,
And flood of sorrow round him
But Jesus bids the floods be still,
And gently wipes his weeping eyes;
The only way to Zion’s hill,
By Sinai’s smoking border lies.
