PENITENT SEEKING CHRIST




Gracious Lord, incline thine ear.
My requests vouchsafe to hear:
Sore distrest with guilt am I,
Give me Christ, or else I die.


Wealth and honor I disdain;
Earthly comforts all are vain;
These can never satisfy, I,
Give me Christ, or else I die.


Lord, deny me what thou wilt,
Only take away my guilt;
Mourning at thy feet I lie,
Give me Christ, or else I die.


All unholy and unclean,
I am nothing else but sin;
I to thee for mercy fly,
Give me Christ, or else I die.


Thou dost freely save the lost;
In thy grace alone I trust;
With my earnest suit comply,
Give me Christ, or else I die.


O, my God, what shall I say?
Take, O take my sins away:
Jesu’s blood to me apply,
Give me Christ, or else I die.


Does the Father seem to frown?
I take shelter in the Son:
Jesus, to thine arms I fly,
Save me, Lord, or else I die.
