At thy feet, oh God of grace,
Low a helpless sinner lies ;
Thou alone canst reach his case,
Hear, oh hear his plaintive cries :
Grant him succour in distress,
Let his fears no more oppress.
He has tried, alas, in vain,
Guilt of conscience to remove ;
But to mitigate his pain,
Nought avails him but thy love:
Should thy favour be denied ,
Nought can do him good beside.
Be thy wondrous grace displayed,
One poor captive to restore ;
Let him feel thy special aid,
Let him all thy gaze adore :
Then with all the choirs above,
He will sing redeeming love.
