Vile temptations oft will say,
‘Tis too late to watch and pray;
What advantage can arise,
From abundant tears and sighs.
Lord, we own it to be true,
Nothing we can say or do,
Can for sin and guilt atone,
Nought can save but grace alone.
Yet we’ll watch and weep and pray,
Since ‘tis thine appointed way;
And shouldst thou our suit disdain,
Still thou righteous wilt remain.
But thy mercy, Lord, we crave,
Plead thy willingness to save;
Let not mercy be denied,
Since thy Son for sinners died.
