Lord, regard a vile offender,
While he now attempts to pray;
Hear his broken supplications,
Do not frown his soul away:
|: Now in darkness, :|
Grant to him a cheering ray.
In the dust in low prostration,
Hear his cried and plaintive moan;
Justice stern his blood requireth,
Now he feels himself undone:
|: Oh for mercy! :|
Make thy grace and mercy known.
Duties all are unavailing,
Peace and pardon to procure;
Blood divine alone can save me,
When applied with sovereign power
|: Bless’d Redeemer, :|
Save me in the trying hour.
